Sounds like you didn't let it idle for a minute after the flash. If you start driving it immediately, it will go into a low power mode that disables the VVT system. It will re-enable eventually but may take 5-10 minutes of driving.

mmmm i let it idle after the flash, always let the car heat up before driving... and yesterday i drove for 1200km (long trip to visit my family). At first it was more noticeable, today the car felt better, more alive...
Maybe its just my imagination... heheheheh
Anyway, thanks for the response!!! waiting on my OFT now!!!
