Depends on the standalone, really, but most offer: - boost control (no external controller needed) - datalogging - "easy" tuning (read: no having to burn and replace a chip) - can adjust just about everything (timing, fuel, dwell, boost, yada yada) - WBO2 reading/datalogging - most have a few outputs that you can have trigger whatever you want - shift lights, NOS, water/meth injection, whatever Then you get into more and more advance features: - WOT shifting capabilities - launch control - built in water/meth control (not just a trigger) For the average stage 3 car, there really isn't any major "benefits" over what is currently out there. If I were to get another Z, I would do all that I could to get an MS3x to work on it, or get an AEM. I can't stand having all kinds of other crap bolted/wired to cars (boost controllers, etc), so a standalone is a one-part solution for just about everything you need. I've had one in my car since 2003, and even despite it being very very ancient technology-wise, I couldn't imagine not having it...but I boosted an originally nonturbo car, so I really had no choice.
