Reflash or Piggyback??

my mods on my 2003 sxt are header, CAI, and exhaust. i will soon have the indy intake manifold, mpx throttle body, and UDP. after that, i dont know. which leads me to my post.

should i get a reflash, which i hear helps you take advantage of the mods you have done? or should i get a piggyback system, which i hear helps offset your bad neon computer?

i know very little on the ecu/electrical of any car, so whatever advice you have should be in very simple. "idiot" explaination would be best lol. anybody do either option and have good results?

get nitrous.. lol

for the 03+ you could go with a standalone like Megasquirt and with the kind of work your doing to the engine would most be benificial

i looked into the megasquirt once. besides being a bit pricey, dont you have to program it all and then install?

sorry, i dont know too much about about the megasquirt lol. i and kinda stupid when it comes to aftermarket computer junk.

what is its advantage over a reflash??

just go to the megasquirt forum here and read around... also, ask questions and search the MS websites. Easy to really understand, just need to read up!

Reflash I do not think works for what you are attempting. Also, DONT believe the hype on this NGC myth.
