Might be a stupid question but are they the same thing or?

 

not at all the same, but do similar things...ECU reflash is the way to go...

 

So I can get the Aem fic? or is it better to tune the piggyback also when you re flash are you reflashing the stock ecu or the piggyback?

 

We have the capability to tune the cars stock ECU so you dont need either of those.

The AEM FIC would be a headache to wire up to the motor.

And the piggyback is ineffecient. All it does it intercept signals to and from the ECU and alter them.

Tuning the stock ECU is the best and cheapest method. You can use the Hackish (fastworks) method. Or the OttRalliart (ECUflash) method. Research them, you'll find threads here on both.
