K8 ecu tuning

[Thefez]

So thruout my reading on here it seems like everyone that boosts uses ms(megasquirt). Im looking to boost like 6psi with a smaller tubo was wondering what other options to tuning these cars there is other then a standalone.

A piggy back.

Its inferior, but works. Not quite as safe either, because you can't actually modify the ignition or fuel maps directly.

Ok so there are piggybacks i honestly could find anything on here about them.. Still new to the site would you happened to have more info on this? Like brands and what not popular ones and ones to stay away from?

I know a couple of people on here using

myself included very soon going to be installing this, you can modify fuel & igntion and there is a company called boomslang who can make plug 'n play harnesses for it for our cars.

Its always best to find a good mapper first though and see what they recommend or are happiest with using.
