But that only matters if your willing to upgrade your coils and are looking for 500+ hp or really high RPM. Nothing else offers any positive benefit. That commander is SO useful at quickly diagnosing problems, people don't realize. It's something the everyday owner can understand without specialized knowledge that other ECU's will require.

I think another thing other ECUs offer is repair support. PowerFCs seem to crap out a lot (seeing as most are very old) and they seem to take forever to fix-if they ever get fixed, as opposed to other EMS options.
