I've searched and found nothing to help. where have people had there ECU reprogrammed with the GM s/c reflash? and around how much should I expect?

only Gm dealerships can do it, most of the time they wont do it unless you bought the Gm charger, otherwise expect to pay anywhere from 40-100 dollars.

^He is right, but the price is depending on the dealer for 1hr labor work.

I have a 99 alero...but i wouldnt think the ecu in an alero would be that much different than that of a cavy..i've heard possibly gear ratios are different but thats it. would that affect the reflash at all?

I might be wrong, but i think you can only do it to 2000+ jbodies, alero's and grand am's with the 2.4L engine
I guess i'll just have to check around at some of the dealers around here....i'll see what i can come up with. anyone else that knows anything about it, any help would be much appreciated.

Is it ONLY for the 2.4L or could I have it done since I have a 2002 SFI(2.2L)?
what exactly does the reflash do? any body running them on a turbo'd cavi
I am using one. There is no proof of it doing anything. But on jeff filkins dyno sheets it looks like it automatically raises fuel pressure according to boost psi from the two bar. and i beleave that it also pulls timing too. But noone knows for sure what else it does. I bought a complete reflashed pcm from a jbo member with a auto charger reflash. I got lucky as heck. And yes I am turbo . First automatic to have the reflash with a turbo setup. As far as the 5 speed guys i think there were only a few before me. Brian speedracerZ. Jeff Filkins. kane5576 , me , and maybe a couple others that are turboed and running the reflash... All the others run it on the supercharger. It is only for 2000 + 2.4 Liters automatic and manual have different flashes too.... Hope that helps. Good luck finding someone to do it.

Yea the re flash also changes the timing when the engine starts to receive knock... not until your getting over 6psi though (i got that info from a buddys dyno sheets with the 6psi and 8psi pulleys, as there was like a 2hp gain from 6-8psi because he was getting knock)... then you need a way to cool down the charged air... like alcohol injection or Nitrous
