I dont' care. I'm still re-flashing my car. In 2005 California is also changing the smog certifications cylces to 6 years. I'll bet someone in the next 6 years will have a fix. If not, what's a new stock compliant ecu going to cost? I have seen wrx ecu's go for well under $1,000. So if that is the worst case scenerio I am looking at, then flash away.
