So is dbtuned doing their own tuning as well? Do the two tuners offer the same packages (i.e.: Cobb AP) or is one of you going to offer other solutions as well? 
And I think the ECutek question was quite legitimate, especially for those of us that invested quite a bit of money into that system. While the Cobb AP seems like a good choice, especially for those of us that want to switch maps (maybe I'll convert when the smaller version comes out), I need someone who can tune ECUtek for the time being.

That's correct, Paul is also doing his own tuning at the shop. Pricing is similar, although I don't know about any package deals that Paul may offer.
As far as Ecutek, Paul does have the software but we're having issues getting it running on his new laptop and Ecutek isn't being too helpful so far. I have personally stopped using Ecutek ever since my laptop was stollen with my Ecutek dongle and they wanted an obscene amount for replacement software. I now tune primarily using ProTuner or any other user tune-able systems. Most of my previous Ecutek customers have managed to trade their ECU's and get an AP.
Thanks

I've been told that Mike at Gruppe-S can work on Ecutek maps. That may end up being the best option, given the problems with the DB tuned Ecutek licensing/ software.
Eventually, I'll probably end up with the AP.

I have Ecutek also. But, after talking with Paul about his Ecutek license problems, and not wanting to wait after upgrading my turbo to a VF-34 and supporting mods (thus necessitating a retune anyway), I decided to buy an Accessport, then have Paul do a custom tune on it. I thought having the luxury of switchable maps would be a nice option for the future. But, I also wanted it done in time for the upcoming HPDE at T-Hill on the 21st.
