I got a P2 Brain Flash today from WORKS in San Francisco, CA. I've been having issues with a PO300 SES and I can feel it happen on most long freeway drives. After getting the P2, no more......I just have great throttle response, smooth air/fuel and incredible boost. Here is a little detail on the flash and you can find more about WORKS at www.worksrally.com
Description: We do what our brains tell us. A car's ECU is no different. There is no single more valuable tool available to any tuner than the ability to access the car's brain and reprogram it to perform to its fullest potential -- especially after tuning parts have been added to the system. No piggy-back add-ons that intercept and falsify signals to the factory ECU and no standalone engine management systems compromising Mitsubishi safety functionality. The WORKS Brain Flash is the factory ECU that has been reprogrammed with WORKS Performance Software optimizing all applicable maps including but not limited to air/fuel ratios, ignition timing and calculated rev limit. WORKS was the very first Evo tuner in the U.S. to reprogram the factory ECU. Our Software Engineers have been dissassembling U.S. Evo VIII code since April '03 and have software control unparalled in the industry. With the Brain Flash P1, expect a 20+WHP peak gain but more importantly a broad, usable, power curve with no other modifications that is very safe and reliable. In addition, expect improved gas mileage, emmisions compliance, and smoother drivability. Nothing comes close to the plug-and-play performance and reliability of the WORKS Brain Flash. The WORKS Brain Flash RL is also available to customers who only want to increase the factory rev limit to their desired RPM. In either case the ECU can be reprogrammed back to stock if necessary and of course is backed by our Factory Matched 3-Year Warranty.
The Brain Flash P2 represents an upgrade to the Brain Flash P1 by peak and holding the factory peak boost! The P2 provides addictive acceleration by eliminating the factory boost taper in the higher rpms. By eliminating this boost drop-off, the total area under the torque and horsepower curve is enhanced and the car responds with increased urgency as the power band winds up.
WORKS' Engineers spent many months analyzing the stock boost control system first. Then improved upon the design to bring you a true peak and hold system. There is no removal of factory inline flow restrictors or any attempt at fooling the ECU logic. This proprietary system represents a tried and true reliable design which takes the safe factory system one step further. With the unique WORKS Boost Hose Assembly (which appears identical to stock) and ECU boost mapping modifications, WORKS has total boost control. Of course the P2 upgrade involves a comprehensive performance ECU remapping of the fuel and ignition to compliment the rock-solid peak boost.
