Imaging, guiding and observing

Hey everyone, I've been reading about autoguiders all day, ST-4, EQMOD, standalone and PC driven but I think I know less now than I did this morning.

I have an EQ6 without a guide port, an 8" F/5 newt. I have a 60mm guidescope but I also have an Orion off-axis guider. I don't have a guide camera yet but I'm leaning towards the QHY-5.

The Shoestring Astronomy GPUSB with hand controller mod looks like a good setup for a good price, combined with PHD software. But I've heard a lot of talk about EQMOD too, but I don't really understand what it does or whether it'll even work with my mount?
