EcuTek vs. Unichip?

What is the difference between applying EcuTek or Unichip to a FRS/BRZ?

What are the advantages, positives/negatives, benefits and features between the two?

Which would you choose and which should I get because I am interested in one or the other?

**I do not plan on putting a turbo or supercharger on my car.Is the Unichip better in that case?

Any insight would be appreciated!

I only plan on street driving + back roads, etc.


Thanks.

OOPS! I just found an Ecutek vs Unichip thread. Sorry! You may delete this thread.

Thanks! I searched in the wrong part of the forum so it wasn't showing up initially.

No problem. I saw afterwards that you posted you found it. Left the link though in case anyone else needs it.

There's also a thread here:

If you're keeping to just bolt-ons, I've had a great experience with Unichip. Just depends on what you find value in.
