Greddy Twin Turbo, AAM ECU Flash or Utec?

Hey i'm going to be dropping off my car to altered atmosphere at the end of this week and i have been thinking whether i should go with their ecu flash or just get the turbo xs utec piggy back. I was wondering if anyone could help me decide or had any expirence with either of the two ecu's.

Are you currently turbo? the Utec will give you tuning capabilities. The flash is better for N/A cars IMO.

Dude the reflash will do nothing for the turbo install it is for n/a cars.At least get the utec for tuning.......cause if you were to get just the reflash it would go boom as soon as you hit boost.

I already have UpRev's Osiris if I sell that for $600 and then you factor in buying a Utec, might as well step up to the big boy EMS
