Default Mating a piggyback with a TS ECU

I've had the TS ECU for quite some time now and recently purchased an E-Manage Blue with a plug n' play harness. (long story short, if I would have known about UTEC fitting in a 6th gen Maxima a while ago, then I would have gotten that instead of both of these, but ya and I also wanted the speed limiter and raised rev limit from the TS...can the UTEC do those two?)

Also, how are you 350Z guys dynoing with an accurate AFR printout if you HAVE CATS?

Main concern being...I've heard that with any piggy-back system, the ECU will "eventually adjust" and alter the piggy-backs settings. Is this true or am I thinking of something in the wrong way?

Thanks, and any insight would be greatly appreciated.

if you get the limited spec tune from TechnoSquare, you dont have to worry about the "eventually adjust" , they take that feedback value out so you can use piggy back systems such as the Emanage Blue/Ultimate

How do I know if I have the "limited spec tune?"

if you have timing and AFR changes, thats Full Spec

if you just got Rev Limiter, Throttle body, and Speed limiter delete. that's Limited Spec.

if you have ALL that done, then obviously you have the Full Spec.

you can still alter the AFR and timing on top of the Fspec.

Without the ECU "adjusting itself," correct?
