they do open up a lot of options and make mapping easier. can be a pain if your car uses canbus though. but piggy backing standard ecu for abs/traction control and dash works ok to.

This might be interesting: www.obdtuner.com
However: it is designed for vx220/speedster. Which means it doesn't support a/c, traction control, cruise control. Maybe using this software on a 2nd ecu as a piggyback on our astra / vectra ecu's is an option? I don't know...

It is flashed onto your original ecu. You can map it yourself with roadmapping. So the benefit of that is you won't need an expensive tuner everytime you mod your engine, exhaust, etc. Guys that use it for their speedsters are quite positive about it. Would be great to get it running on the astra...

Send it to the netherlands jobby for the flash. The rest you can do at home. Does take some knowledgen of finetuning an engine though
