What "ECU reflash" are you talking about? The cold start lumpiness? It's not necessary but will help your cold start if you are experiencing that issue. As for getting the Xede, unless you plan on getting some custom tuning by him it doesn't matter when you get the Xede unit. If you plan on having him tune it for you then I'd get all of the updates out of the way if your car needs them and then have it tuned (although those updates shouldn't effect his tuning by much anyway.)
