I'd go custom tune if cash and time isn't an issue.
One thing thats cool about the custom tuning is you can set as many files as needed, for ex. (one for nitrous) (one for daily driving). The custom tuning would be great for a guy who does alot of street driving, but sprays when he goes out to the track every once and a while. Adjust timing for perfecting launches,a/f ratio, corrected volume efficiency table, and perhaps for a colder plug all for the nitrous use at the track. Then, when your all done, swap tires, plugs, and swap bin files to your all motor setup.
I haven't thought about this that hard because I haven't considered doing it yet so dont expect that idea to be perfect to the T. more of an example showing a benefit of custom programming.

I wish I wouldve purchased tuning software of my own to start. I previously had Westers and the first tune (when my money was on the line) was good. After that I was blown off and when I finally did recieve an update it was totally useless. I had to pay a guy locally $420 to tune it so that it was drivable.
