Then there is the cost difference, and we do offer custom mapping as well for certain needs or mods.

That "1-2 more HP" oftentimes translates into a new set of pistons & cylinders for you, especially in hot weather.
IMHO, you get what you pay for and the consequences can get quite expensive.

All Racing Pros had to do was put an SW chip on an EPROM reader/flasher and change the mapping a tad bit and call it their own. The 28 pin chip didn't cost but 3 or 4 bucks on Ebay. Sorry.
