Yea, you can buy the software but then you are on your own. Make sure you get a wideband at least and or go to dyno etc...

I have a question.....

so I was skimming through the tuning portion on the piggyback tech section..

and i saw this
4. Examine the overall health of the engine. If you see oil coming out of the engine breather, smoke, or general state of disrepair, this engine might be on its last leg. You do not want to be the one operating or tuning it when it comes apart. You will get the blame every time
so i have seen a i have some dried up oil but i dont have like oil gushing out of there or n e thing, does that mean my engine is on its last leg or something???? That got me a TOUCH worried.

as soon as i get the money, i'm getting the piggy!!!!!!!!! i can only imagine the gains i would get from the stock engine. i mean, you guys got a base map for the area that your located in i'm sure. but i live in guam, i can tune it better to the elevation and humidity and gain a couple more ponies from just the stock engine. and then whatever else i do, i can tune it again. hell yea, you guys rock.

DOn't strees too much yet. Have to say that cause guys try to squeeze big power out of a dead *****. Non US guys can pretty much take advantage now of the piggy too. I will not be worried for minor differences in Asian model cars etc... You can just tune it in!

Yep. Software and wideband and KNOWLEDDGE. If you are unsure of yourself, get software and go to dyno.

hey rock, does the programmer and software come with the piggy when you buy it now?

and what exactly does the piggy do? i mean like, does it advance the timing at all? if it doesn't, do you guys know how to advance the timing?

thanks, brad

It is included after the first. The timing does not and has never been programmable on the piggy. See the www.roadracemotorsports.com/Piggytech.htm page for features.
