If the added expense doesn't bother you, or you don't plan to do any bolt-ons for a while (or at all) then have at it. Either way it's your choice. But I personally don't feel like laying out the funds for a reflash twice, given the mod path I've taken.

In so far as the OP is obviously planning to do a bunch of bolt-ons, I believe that it would make more sense for him to do them prior to the reflash, strictly from a cost-control standpoint. In other words, whether or not he'd get good gains from a reflash is not something I'm disputing here.
