Not to hijack the thread, but do you guys recommend doing an exhaust BEFORE getting a flash, or doing the flash first?

yes, but he already has aftermarket exhaust, so for him ECU flash is needed.


Since we are recommending tunes, I recommend UMW or EPL. They can extract a boat load of power from your stock turbos.

For your budget, should be able to get a flash... EPL lists their flash around $1,200 or 1,300 on their website. Not sure what that includes...
