and at the 5k mile service do they reflash the stock ECU or add upgrades? my car has been running sluggish after i had the 5k mile service. i have a GIAC chip also but i thing they might have got rid of it.

i know they do do something to the ecu everyfew years if theres a new software to add. they did it to my truck. that sucks they flashed over your chip. part of the dealership, they flash your car if theres a better verson out.


hope GIAC has a warranty, im sure they laugh and re-chip it.

Great sounding car, sounds better then mine... sad. . what i heard, when you got into a high RPM the intake would whine. get a bigger filter. thats what i did and the whine stoped. then i crashed it. ooo about your rims, around 100 bucks they fix the scratchs they put new metal on and repaint it.
