standalone and piggyback discussion

[kenscivic]

Now if K-pro/Hondata took a honda ecu, installed all their necessary hardware, changed the ecu cover to something branding their company, then sold it complete, then it could be considered a stand-alone but as of now it's just a kit that is used in conjunction with the factory ECU.

you have choices, you can buy kpro without them using your factory ecu, instead of 800-1000$ it costs 1500$


so are you saying that would be considered "stand alone" but sending in your ecu would be considered piggyback? :confused: even though it is the same exact thing

i couldn't have said it any more clearly...


Now if K-pro/Hondata took a honda ecu (as in bought a truckload from honda), installed all their necessary hardware (soldered in and attached all the things they sell), changed the ecu cover to something branding their company (made the ecu cover their own item, as in changing the physical appearance of it with their own thing), then sold it complete (as in a box with everything just as if you were buying an AEM EMS), then it could be considered a stand-alone BUT as of now it's just a kit that is used in conjunction with the factory ECU (as in you buy the parts and pieces to incorporate those items to you existing ECU).

but they DO sell it as a package also... so lets say i pay 1500$ for the "hondata" one and one i send my ecu in for the 800$ one, they both do the same exact thing, look exactly the same, the 1500$ one is a stand alone and the 800$ is a piggyback?
