To flash or not to flash

Ok I have been reading the forums and cannot find the right info. Here is setup

ATI Procharger
RC 550cc injectors
CJ Stage 1 fuel return
walbro 255 fuel pump
utec
AEM Wideband

Do I need a ECU reflash along with a tune or just a tune

I don't see the need to flash if you have a UTEC unless you want to up your idle/rev limiter.

Just get a tuned by a tuner who knows the VQ35DE.

^^ Agreed

I think he's going to go with Forged Performance for a Tune, personally personally in my deep opinion, I do not like the Utec, with bigger injectors it just lags to start up sometimes, and i had start up issues, where if i dont give it gas it just stalls But then again my car has a bad ecu so maybe its just that, thats why i didnt want to have a conclusion or criticize anything, although i did not find out about the ecu until lately when my throttle response started acting up

What EMS do you have?

Not sure if this is true or not, since I haven't done any reasearch on it. But I heard some ECU reflashes can scale for larger injectors? I think it was TS who said that
