I had my ECU reflashed and it was/is NOT down on power, nor does it have crappy response. I don't believe it will magically get better. Good Luck getting it back to the way it was.

the most "common" way I have seen the problem "created" is to change your oil. someone I know used 5w-20 instead of 0w-20 and threw the CEL in less than 5 miles.

Wait a minute. Are you telling us the stage one adds only 14 HP? I'm not paying 4 grand for 14 WHP. I remember different numbers but don't want to wade thru 43 pages to find it.

Well, most serious codes turn on the CEL. I use a scan tool to check for codes. Some auto parts places do it for free. If you don't see a code, the dealer will say: "What problem? Show Me."

If you have dropped a code, I would say bring it in. If not, they will prolly blow you off until a code shows up.
