With an ECU reset you typically get your rev limiter bumped up to around 7700(??) i think they may also be able to tune your A/F since breather mods can make u run lean (dangerous) at higher RPM. the initial cost is pretty pricey..anywhere from $300-650...but they give you a discount after the initial flash. just remember if the dealer ever finds out u remapped ur fuel/air or timing or reflashed ur ECU your big time SOL when your engine fails!!

I've had mine reflashed. Crawford and TechnoSquare got together and jointly developed a flash that takes advantage of the Crawford bolt-ons. Plenum, cats, and headers.
I've got the "Crawford Flash" on my ECU. Worth it? Oh Ya! I definitely felt the extra urge, and I don't bump the rev limiter anymore. BTW, the rev limit was raised to 7100 RPM. I usually shift somewhere around 6800 or 6900 on aggressive acceleration, and the power is still coming on.
Techno-Square did leave stickers on the ECU, but neither the dealer nor a smog inspection station can tell with their diagnostic tools that it was modified, and you don't get a CEL. To tell it's been changed, you need to physically remove it and look at it.
It's something I would do again, in a heart beat.

i had my ECU reflash at AAM. Definiately, the car goes faster, rev up to 7200RPM, A/F ratio is 12.5....costed me 500 bucks
.....IMO, it's little bit pricey but.....it works.....I raced with my buddy IS300 (mods), so I could see the difference.

You remove it, they flash it, and return it.
