Re-Flash with FC Throttle Body

350 Views 7 Replies 7 Participants Last post by  Trifocal
Just curious has anyopne had the re-flash with the FC 65mm throttle body installed? Does the reflash help anywhere? My 2003SVTF runs so good under RLA-6 and the 65MM throttle body, i'm afraid to mess with it.

Then dont
I just had mine Re Flashed but it has only a MaganFlow Exhaust and JRSC but it seems to be doing just fine. In fact the Cold Start is better now. But i dont know if you should do it or not.

If your car runs great on the current flash.. don't reflash it!! An ECU reflash is not going to give you more power, it is only there to solve driveability issues. If you aren't having any issues, don't change. If you do, you could start encoutering issues, and then your stuck. There is no going back.

Indeed. If anything goes wrong, you will wish you took the "blue pill" (Matrix reference). You can't see what is on the other side before you go, and you ain't goin' back.

I took the "red pill" every time, because I figured anything had to be better than the damned stumbling, stalling and undriveability, especially with the AC on (went "RRRUMP RRRUMP RRRRUMP" bouncing around at idle, and was a pain to get moving... and stalled more often).

YRFO (or whatever) seems to hold idle in check a lot better (haven't test AC yet though), but my stock TB needed replaced before that could be proven because it suddenly became defective right after the latest flash.

Bad TB... Gotta love a car with it's own clutch-busting lead foot. Hmmm...
