Flashing?

This may be a dumb question, but I figured I should ask anyway. What happens when you "flash" your car? I know I probably opened the door for some one-liners, (which are always welcome) but I also can't be the only one who doesn't know what it is, and the benefits.

Thanks,

It's basically re-setting your ecu w/o atually "Chipping" the car.
It gives a performance boost, but can mess with your warranty.

Do you happen to have a rwhp dyno graph?.. most chips for the GT3 are under 10 rwhp

Vishnu said he got 30+ rwhp.. which would mean he found rwhp were nobody else has.. curious to how that can happen.

The reason I ask is that I would be interested in doing it if you could guaranty 15 peak rwhp.
