Its all a matter of $$

So whats the budget here?

You can buy a used piggyback (PFS/EFI purple box) for around $500

Or possibly a Apexi SAFC, Greedy E-Manage.

Other than that its either a Haltech, or AEM EMS (both $1200+)

How do you keep the HOLD features and PROPERLY control TQ Conv. Lockup? - both require communication between the EMS and AUTO ECU to work and my understanding is that the PFC cant provide the proper communication?
