What is it?
An aftermarket computer is wired into the standard computer.
The standard computer still controls everything except fuel, ignition and some auxiliaries.
Main Features
Some aftermarket computers' adjustments are not as precise as the standard computer so leaving the standard computer to control idle, fuel pump, etc may be a better option.
With late model cars, the standard ecu controls everything from stability control, ABS, drive-by-wire, etc making it impossible to remove the standard ecu completely.
