 Piggyback ECU's

I've been having a discussion with a few people on the topics of ECU's, and came to the concensus that the factory ECU is a fairly good piece of gear.
We were discussing the virtues of scrapping the factory setup or merely utilising a piggy-back to just correct the factory settings to something that is better suited to the application.
Does anyone know of any good piggy-back ECU's? Also, does anyone have anything to add to this, possibly from personal experience? Thanks.

depends what ya want outta it my apexi s-afc works great for the a/r ratios...but a very flexible piggy back is the uni chip at 1000 even has manual launch and flat change control which can be switched on and off and you can have 2 fuel maps wich you can again switch btween at a grand it sounds nice

Yeah, the UNICHIP is sounding like a good idea, any other people with suggestions?

I need a bit of clearing up about this kind of thing. Some early fuel injected cars can't be chipped, like the 3S-GE and 4A-GE. At least that's what I've read - I think Powerchip won't change them either (I think they do a piggy-back ECU kind of thing). But can you actually replace the entire ECU on those engines, say, with an Autronic or a Motec?
