OpenECU is a free program that lets you tune your car DIY using only a laptop and a OBD2-USB cable.
There's a LARGE thread in our Lancer Engine Management forums about ECUFlash, might be a good starting point. Read it here.
Datalogging is the act of hooking your laptop up to your car and using a program to LOG the DATA that your ECU records. The ECU in your car is constantly tracking data about everything from engine speed to water temp, etc.

Honestly, I'd remove the piggyback. It really doesn't seem to be getting along with your car. You could buy the software from RRM and take it to a tuner to see if they can make it run better or you can just sell it and move on. That part is up to you.
