    remember you need the connectors under the dash plugged in and the blue flash block as well.

    You just need someone with a laptop and a cable. You can flash any USDM 02/03 MT rom and it should work, the bugeye's are pretty forgiving. However, all stock maps can be downloaded from the OSecu forums, so just grab the one for your car.

    Any one with Romraider the Tactrix cable and a flash block should be able to do it in about 5 min. I only have a drive by wire cable or I'd help you out.

    Well let me know. I'm only about 10 mins from the shop.
    I'm actually still here. I will be here tomorrow if that will work out too.
    You got my number.

    I have my car at Dave (Gearhead Graphics) Place. Its 10 min past Waconia.

    Dave has the cable to read engine codes from his laptop. Is that the only cable we need? Whats the flashblock?
