My own M flash story
Just got the M flash during first scheduled maintenance.
Bottom line, car feels a little more responsive off the line, a little more eager, a little smoother.
Haven't checked gas mileage change because I don't really care...

Let me give my take on his story.
Viggen's Story
Sunlight streamed through the window. It's rays reflecting off of a metal fork, splintering into hundreds of tiny shards of light. Suddenly, a shadow loomed over the fork, dismissing the rays, leaving the room darker.
He stood up and placed his dirty dishes in the sink and grabbed his keys. Today was the day his Rx-8 would get its first service. 7500 miles already. It was almost unbelieveable. He loved this car like it was his child. Time to take the baby to see the doctor.
He sat there at the dealership, waiting impatiently for his baby. These things always seemed to take much longer than nessecasry. Why should it take so long to change the oil, rotate the tires, and upgrade the flash?
To make matters worse, it was hot today. As he sat there in the little plastic lawn chair, he took not of some of the other patrons.
There was an old lady there. She seemed to follow everyone with here eyes. While she did this, she sucked on her teeth and made the most annoying sound he'd ever heard.
Then there was the young kid with a yellow Protoge. He could have been the poster boy for ADHD. He could not sit still for even one moment. Maybe he was nervous because the old lady kept staring at his butt..
"You car is ready sir."
The voice interrupted his thoughts. He stirred, followed the gentleman and took care of his bill.
As he fired up his car he thought to himself.
"I wonder if the car feels any different with the M flash."
Easing the vehicle onto the road, he gave it a little throttle. The vehicle took off more urgently than it ever had before. It definately felt better to his butt dyno..
As he drove home, he passed a gas station then briefly glanced at his fuel gauge.
"Ahh, who cares."
He then drove home, satisfied.

Got my M flash yesterday.
So last night, I did the unthinkable: I started my car cold, moved it 30' down the parking lot, and shut it off.
And no, I didn't rev it up first.
I'm livin' on the edge now, baby.
