Mi ECU es su ECU, IPD vs. SAM S70 1998

I'm almost ready to take the ECU plunge. IPD most likely, but the SAM price ($462) is very tempting!

Can anyone think of a reason that I would want MY original ECU to be programmed instead of someone else's 'swapped out' ECU?? The core charge isn't a problem, the downtime is a bit of a drag, but workable if my ECU is more valuable to me.

Would I be getting someone else's problems, I don't know what they would have done to it, and IPD says that it's got to be in good condition for them to get their core charge back so....

Also any thoughts on IPD vs. SAM?

I don't see much advantage ($400 worth at least) in the flash programming.
