ECU vs. PiggyBack! on 04' ES

I was reading through some threads and i couldn't help but ask you guys about one of them. It mentioned by doing an ECUFLASH it should be the better alternative then investing in a Piggyback. I really want to do a ecuflash because i have an 04' ES and it's non turbo so no need for a piggy back, but what i need to know is.

1. Can i get my stock ECU flashed (2.0l SOHC) or would it be better to grab an ecu from a different lancer like a ralliart and flash that one instead?

it's my daily but i want some more HP and a response from my gas peddle lol Thanks guys!

Ecuflash is not something you're going to do yourself.... you dont seem to be a mechanics and even mechanics usualy son't know how tuning works....just go to a speedshop and they will tune your car. Ecuflash is the program they would need to tune your car.
