Any feature you could want (associated with a car of course) and more than you can understand.

I have 20% (butt dynojet figure) more power now at a lower boost setting with this system. My clutch will now slip if I get on it too hard in any gear.

Avoid the Unichip like the plague. The Utec has some flaws, but it's good for people who want to tune but are new to it. The autronic (or any other true stand-alone) is for more experienced tuners and mechanics because you have to reteach your car cold starts, hot starts, light-load/partial throttle running... hours and hours of work to make it run like it did before you pulled the factory ECU even before you get to the good part (WOT tuning). All this is, of course, assuming you have a WRX. Personally, I would go with a reflash + Delta Dash, as you get all the perks of a piggy back with all the control of a standalone. Best of both worlds with no real weaknesses.
