Nissan Primera

I am looking at all different types of ECU for my car but i need to clear a few things up first.

1. Is the MegaSquirt2 a stand alone ECU (i can throw my Nissan ECU away) of simply a piggy back unit?

2. I would like to be able to adjust the advance and retard on the ignition (possibly have two ...
