Again, I'm not sure what you're talking about w/ the AP map. Blaming the AP for your original poor tune is like blaming a wrench for a loose bolt.
The AP is just something that uploads engine maps into the stock ECU. The quality/appropriateness of the map for your car has nothing to do with the AP itself, and in fact the AP's tuning interface is one of the better ones which usually means that tuners that use the AP can make better maps faster than with other tools.
Personally, I'd rather have a tuner that's got a Cobb license, a shop, a dyno, and lots of existing satisfied customers to knock me out a solid map in an hour on a dyno for $200 than to save $50 to have someone who's claim-to-fame is that he can "make more power than the AccessPort" road tune me w/ a tactrix cable and the crappy open source tuning software. Maybe I don't have all the facts about Simon's setup, and you certainly seem happy with the end result, but I can only call 'em like I see 'em.
