I agree with you it's all relevant, I'm just saying that to say someone has the best tunes out is more opinion than anything, it all depends on how the delivery is, and everyone will have different ideas of how the delivery should be. No matter who the op goes with I'm sure he will be happy, as long as nothing goes wrong or doesn't have to wait months to get a finalized tune. Either way there are great tuners on AP and maestro.Correct, performance means different things for different people. Thus I didn't say 1/4 mile times. Drag is a completely different beast. A drag set up and tune will suffer on a race track. The only complaints or issues I have read about from 5150 are customer service issues and not tune related, unlike the other big companies. I would never consider a tune that gets the best score on a drag strip to be the best tune, except for drag racing (same applies to street tunes and track tunes, it's all depending on the end user).

I agree with the whole "trapped in APR" thing. At this point as I'm going is38 I am stuck continuing on the APR rabbit hole for way less money and less performance, or dropping another 1200+ on another custom tuning solution. .
If I did a stratified ECU tune with an AP, could I then go get a stage 2 TCU tune from anyone else?

If I were to start fresh Cobb AP would definitely be my tuning devices for all of the options it offers. Their OTS tunes suck, but if you can wait a few weeks or a year on tuning it to not suck then that’s money saved vs being trapped at stage 2 like me.
I'm surprised no one mentioned Unitronic. I know the OP wasn't asking about Unitronic but a lot of people mentioned Unitronic is more conservative, yet linear.
