the downside is the nickel and diming, firmwared anything into the units, the retarded narrowband input factory option and the older than time dongle w/o write to disc(supposedly they did step into the 20th century recently with the new version).

does it work? yes, very well.
is it the best ECU out there now? fuck no. though it's only been recently that some other ECUs are giving them a hard time about being the cheapest ECU still on the market(no, i still don't consider MS a comparable option either even though it is cheaper, or that Rtek garbage).

and it depends on which car you are installing it on and whether you care about re-using 20-25 year old wiring. most of the cars i work on have almost zero realistic plug-n-play options. though it doesn't bother me much, because building a high performance car with the original harness always leaves me a little uneasy.
