I just had mine done today and I think I can notice a slight increase in performance. The technician I talked to stated that he overwrote the original program with a totally new program and it will take some time for the new program to break in. COnsidering I had exhaust and an intake when I go the new program, don't you think the computer would have taken advantage of the better intake and exhaust?

or is it just my mind playing tricks on me?

How did you bring up that the fuel-cut needs to be done?

I printed out the TSB from one of the posts and was thinking of just showing the TSB to my dealer...

The fuel-cut TSB has NOTHING to do with performance. It has to do with the ability of the car to drive smoothly at low rpm, particularly in 1st gear.

They had no idea what I was talking about so I printed the TSB and showed it to them.
