ok so i posted before about my ecu issues but now i would like to get it chipped or reflashed  
but i dont want to lose my car for more then 2 days  
i found ecu loaders and software but that would run me up to 500$  
any ideas? any local shops? and my ecu cannot be chipped it has to be reflashed  
my motor is the bdf 24 valve car is an 02

Have you contacted Next Level yet? They are an APR shop. They gave me a demo reflash on my car when I first bought it. I did not notice a change.

yea u use the cruise control to switch programs and i donno i didnt dyno it yet but i could definately feel it in the seat of pants dyno and my friend has a civic that pulls on me pretty hard but after tune he barely pulled which also helped me convince my self that it wasnt a waste
