Default flashing computer

Not sure of the correct term of reprogramming the computer to work with bolt on modifications but trying to learn, I'm old school. My son and I are working on his 99 TA and are putting some BBK headers on it and a Y pipe and removing converters, Is there anyone to send the computer out to get reprogrammed or whats the best route?

Well since people all over the country can see this, saying where you are located might give you some other options than sending the PCM out somewhere.

Sorry, I haven't got that far on here yet, need more time to figure that out. I am near Akron/Canton Ohio. My son says he wants to wait on a tune because he thinks he will have to retune it every time we make a mod. Not sure which route to go but hes 17 and not a lot of $ but I think just a tune with the headers will make it run good enough for a while. Any suggestions?
Thanks

I did check out your web page, seems that you are the guy! Can you give us a ballpark figure of what flashing it costs and do we have to change it with every mod?

Right now our current pricing is $200 plus $20 return shipping with free lifetime updates with you just paying $20 shipping for future changes. If you change a part that drastically changes airflow or speed related like gears or tire size then you would need a tune update.
