RRM Piggy Back (ECU)

Me and my dad were thinking about getting a performance chip for my 2005 lancer ES. I found this one but I was wondering if it will actually help in performance. If not what one will, and if you have one tell me about it please. Thanks!

Here is the link to the one im talking about ----->

I had this installed on my Lancer lately ( an Asian Lancer with 2.0L 4G94 AT). The car runs smooth after learning and I can say the noticeable gain in mid ranges and upper. Cruising on highway is much more fun now. That's all I Can say (I only have K&N SRI, RRM pulley and Marco catback)

there's no magic about it, don't expect it to knock your socks off.

I did the install myself. Was not top difficult given all parts supplemented. I talked to roman in person when i visited RRM and USA a month back and headvised me to get the piggyback i/o headers since i often drive below 3k range anyway. Heade will give u better grasp at higher range.
Btw, i'll end up custom built a turbo so headr is not top priority. If i cant remap the piggybqck by then , i'll do an evo reflash

ok thanks for the information everyone it helped a lot i think im going to go ahead and get the headers first just because I kinda wanted my exhaust to be a little louder. Im also going to get a light weight pull is it worth it? and is it easy enough for me to install it.
