Call up Vince Trifecta. He's a sponsor. He'll ship you a flash tuner that you just plug into the ODBII port, flash your cpu in 10 minutes, then ship it back with a prepaid label he supplies. For $125 shipped ($100 + $25 shipping), he sent me a tuner that recalibrated my gear ratio AND deleted all my codes from a header install. Good guy. Very satisfied.

you can find a good used tuner on your local craigs list or ebay. I bought a diablo for $160 shipped and have been useing it over a year. You can also use it to troubleshoot your check engine light codes, get rid of the skip shift, recalibrate fan on and off temps, change your speedo in the event of a gear change etc.....

When you go to buy, make sure the stock program has been put back into the programmer and it is not VIN # Locked.
