    I'd be all over this if you had a dealer that wasn't 4 hrs from me.

    Can do this by sending the ECU in? I'm not a fan of the dealer that is closest to me and would rather work with AWE for example.

    Only OBD port flashing is supported on the B8 S4, so AWE would not be able to flash your ECU.

    Can we get clarification on this? AWE specifically says on their GIAC order page for the B8 S4 that they will flash the ecu if you mail it in. http://www.awe-tuning.com/giac-perfo...the-b8-s4-3-0t
    Who other than them are flashing the B8 S4's in house while we wait?

    AWE is able to flash mailed in ECUs for bench flashing, but not for OBD port flashing. In this case, dealers would not be able to do anything to your ECU since the B8 S4 software only supports OBD port flashing. Hope this helps and I apologize for any confusion.
