Depends how much your planning in mods really. Remapping the standard ecu with Ecutek will be fine till you start chasing big figures 450bhp upwards.
Aftermarket ecu's is a bit of a minefield as there are so many differant ones to choose from. With HKS stuff i feel you sometimes pay a bit more for the name. Aftermarket ecu's can also give you extras like Anti lag & Launch control.
If your just going mild on the upgrades i'd just remap standard one & save the cash. All depends what your plans are in the long term, if you are going to go for high numbers in the future you will be better changing now rather than spending the money on remaps & the liecense fee (initial one of cost) remapping the standard one then having to pay out on another ecu & remaps on it later down the line.
