It's that time i guess

Power steering decided to die out on me today, have the dreaded steering torque sensor fault (G269)
No doubt I have a few questions before I attempt to tackle this.
Found a company "BBA-REMAN" doing reconditioned racks for £350+vat exchange offer with lifetime warranty, anyone used them before? Or anyone have other recommended places?
Read something about having to take it to VW to flash a steering curve after install....what's this about?
Is it a fairly easy job? I've replaced wishbones etc which needed dropping subframe a bit...so I'd like to think I am able to do a task like this but any heads up would be brilliant! Ta
