Malik, any particular reason you are leaning towards a more expensive (likely more complicated) stand alone over the MAFT-Pro piggy back? I'm not a paid supporter, in fact I'm only just now wading in on the MAFT-Pro in speed density mode and learning about engine control while coming up to speed. Currently after 2 weeks (OK I'm a little little slow) I'm working on out-of-the-box conservative tune on basically stock turbo setup I've started tweaking the boost control settings and trying to figure out why the heck am I hitting fuel cut at any less than 4000 rpm ~ 12 psi boost but above that no problems and maintaining ~ 11.9 AFR?? 
I'm pretty sure it has something to do with an as yet understood setting but at 10 psi boost I had no issues and noticeably improved performance and engine stability immediately after basic install and setup. I don't know what the current cost of a stand alone system is but I paid ~ $700 for the speed density complete kit back in November (OK, I'm a little slow with upgrades). Personally I'm impressed so far after only 2 weeks of my rather slow implementation and further tuning of what appears to be a relatively inexpensive, highly tunable engine control (boost, AFR, & timing if I choose) option.

FWIW from a MAFT-Pro newbie - but enjoying relatively inexpensive control/tuning (if becomes expensive probably from not conservative adjustments)

Is anyone on the list using an Electromotive TEC.
Been doing some research and it seems like a great
unit.  Expensive but it seems to be worth a look!

On another note.  My build is progressing well, just
slow.  Just got my ATI Dampner back.  For anyone going
that route, you have to get your crank bolt machined
down to fit inside the ATI.
My head is still at the shop but the coated pistons
are in and the bottom half is all together.  Just
gotta get my head back on.  I have the HKS adj cam
gears but I don't plan on using them so I want to get
some stock ones.  Anyone got some layin around let me
know. I also have a Lexus afm w/electronics I'm
getting rid of.
