Racerom is for the DBW family of Subaru ecus.
Benefits include, dual maps, launch control, flatshifting, and downshift autoblip aswell as the option to ditch the MAF and run SD based.

I'd use OpenSource where possible on a STD ECU, I don't think EcuTek offer anything over openSource mapping at the moment unless they have changed their product. (sorry been about 18months since I last dabbled)

He's talking about buying the software so you can do your own mapping, not the cost of a remap
