tuning question

I know I want a Cobb reflash. my question is, can anybody other than cobb reflash my ECU? does Cobb have vendors (preferrably in So. Cal) that can reflash? The only reason I havent had this done yet is because my rex is my only car and I cant be without it for 2-3 days. I live in Burbank, real close to Easy Street Motorsports and about 20 min from Suby specialties. I know Suby specialties is a Vishnu rep, but can they do the reflash? if they can, I will go with Vishnu.

any help would be great. thanks.

As of right now, nobody other than Cobb can do the AccessECU reflash. You'd have to wait for their accessport to comeout.

As scott said you can go to an EcuTek tuner, Renick is in Fullerton, or ESX somewhere in socal, Id stay away from them though (never dealt with them just personal opinion I have nothing to back it up )

w3rd. all i can say is that i was not at all impressed by them, their drag car is fast. no doubt, but i dont really think they can compare with vishnu, i-speed, and cobb to name a few.

Ecutek sounds like the solution to my dilemma where is I-speed...location and price?

thanks for all the info. I have also heard negative comments on ESX.

Here is I-Speed. They are Bay Area-based and I don't know if they have off the shelf maps or if they do just custom tuning for their price. More info is on their site, along with contact info. They are also active on i-Club. You can PM Bill aka screenname skywalker.
