the boys at cobb are saying they are working on a reflash for the STi pri-1. hopefully they will be done soon. if they get that out then they are sure to follow with their access port and access tuner. its on the spendy side but it is all top notch stuff from what i hear. that wi what i will be buying when it is available.

where did you get that info? josh hasnt said anything about expected gains on the site for stage 1 reflash. besides that its no just the gains with the reflash its going to be the later stages and the access port and tuner that make the package worthwhile.

ahh...but i dont have a regular wrx. i have an STi. big difference. they havent even finished the management for the STi. if you look at the bottom of that page it says excludes STi. sorry i was thinking STi only. but you are right only 15 horse but the quality and customer service and accessories for the reflash are all top notch products. unlike the other companies cobb only deals with subaru and nothing else so they have alot more experience with how a boxer engine is supposed to work both F/I and N/A. not to mention how all the other parts interact as a whole system. that is why i would choose cobb. either way i guess i comes down to what you are looking for HP gains/dollar spent or quality and reliability.

Many are afraid to mess with Vishnu for this reason. If you don't live in the California area, its a little scary. I have heard some stories of guys spending hours and hours trying to get their STi tuned right. Truth? not sure, It's what I've heard.
What if your on the other side of the country ( which I am). How am I going to get hours of tuning to make my STi run correctly?
I used Turboxs for my 02 WRX. Their off the shelf stage 4 Unichip worked great on my car. I'm hoping they have something to offer in the near future.

EcuTek reflashes for the STi will be available on May 1st, at least according to their latest vendor memos. That means that whoever your favorite EcuTek tuner is, they can do your STi in about 6 weeks. 
If you are impatient, Vishnu's Xede and TurboXS' Utec are already available.
