Don't worry about who's piggy-back ecu you're using, as long as they get the A/F ratio correct and can play with timing to get things correct. Save your money and don't buy the Radiator, stainless header, silicone hoses, blow-off valve, or grounding kit; you won't see any significant horsepower increase with these mods. Do buy a good boost controller, & camshafts (HKS 264's if you're sticking to the stock turbo). Very soon there will be a turbo supplier who will have a bolt-on upgrade turbo that will actually make horsepower and not just claim to make '100hp more'. Save your money for this little gem. Also you won't need a fuel pump or injectors untill you upgrade the turbo an start running higher boost (over 20psi). Check the tech section on our website and the upcoming issue of Modified Magazine for some HP test's of different upgrades and how to make horsepower on your EVO8. Hope this helps.

The Xflash is just another option for EVO owners. I will be adding it to my Xede for some new Vishnu develped features that your flashing system does not have. When Shiv is ready to release them you will full understand the methed to his madness.

Also I want to add, for me Xede is the perfect option. Very easy to use and tune. But you have to understand what your doing to correctly tune your car or pay a pro to do it for you. Plus the ablity to get really good base maps to start from are worth all the diffrence.
