Only if it's donated. I'm not concerned about fuel cut, which I haven't hit even at 25psi on race gas thanks to the S-AFC, but I would very much like to get the rev limit raised. The problem is that since I don't have cams, the only reason for me to raise the rev limit is just so I can trap 1-2mph higher in 4th. That's not a good enough reason for me to warrant purchasing a flash. If I could convince a flash tuner to donate it in exchange for displaying their name, I would, but I'm not interesting enough to the big vendors yet to get that sort of deal.

I do know that I could also benefit from a flash for street purposes, because with the S-AFC, my timing almost bottoms out due to how the stock maps work, so I end up with weaker torque through the mid-range AND a much lower peak torque than most flashes. I do end up with the same (if not higher) peak HP and then solid, flat torque in the top-end, but it really lacks in the lower-end, which is where most of us drive on a daily basis. Anyway, I kinda like not having to list a "flash" as a mod, since many people don't even believe it's possible to go fast (or hit 11s) without a flash or standalone. Most of us here know better, but it's nice not having to give credit to an outside tuning source...
