05-RS1 has some threads around.

the 2nd reflash specific for the auto trans is not a seperate module anymore, but a download on TIS. I hooked up a laptop right to the OBD2 and 5 minutes later it was done. Huge difference in performace before and after, make sure u get it done.

The initial reflash module chip is included in the Automatic Transmission fit kit, and the ECU mapping is specific to the automatic trans. That is plugged up to a reflash tool (which u speak of) and "T'd" in between a ECU plug, takes about 20 minutes to flash.

Only if you have a 2005-2006 tC. But if you have an 07, then that would be the worst investment.

If you are going to void the S/C'er warranty in the sake of squeezing more power out of it, then you might as just turbo it instead.

yup, that's precisely why I wrote 2k. S/C for the '07 are not 2k. ;)

sorry to keep thread jacking but.....what module do they give you with the automatic trans to take to have it reflashed then? the dealership told me it was the same exact thing just for a/t.... soo i was thinking that if someone had one they could let me use it for the reflash and then ill send it back to them...ill pay shipping and everything...ill even give u like 50 bucks or sumthing if someone could help me out...thanks...

i didnt have to buy a separete thing to do the automatic reflash, the auto fit kit was just the new tranny dip stick mount and some spacers for the turbine housing bracket.
i didnt have to pay or provide anything extra to do the additional auto reflash.
