it wouldn't make sense to have a piggyback and ECU flash at the same time. the piggy is just a cheaper and less reliable version of the flash and is an external unit. the flash is when you send your ECU from your car and they flash it and send it back.

Correct. Flash plus piggy is like doing a lot of same stuff twice and better off doing a piggy. At least you can disconnect it if you need to for warranty issue etc.. Flash, you are stuck with.

Something went wacky so I hit submit more than once. YEA check it 3 times. That is the a way of like.

There are lots of positive reviews. You just gotta go read threads in reverse.

RRM's piggyback allowed for me to tune all my mods im running with 91 octane.
worth the money back-then in gas-savings and now it made itself very useful for my tuning purposes.

My dealer doesn't care (or know possibly) it's in there.
It's never given me problems either.

It honestly depends on you.

These 2 devices do 2 different things and install different ways.

I just noticed you said you bought the Timing Controller in another thread. So looks like you made your choice already.

Ironically they dynoed with 1 h.p. of each other but piggyback really helps with you get more out of the other mods and ******** 3000 is almost as good. For the money both really give you value.
