You question asks the difference between a tuner and a tool used to tune. If you are comparing the tool RWM uses, the dimsport, then I would say the AP is far superior in tuning capacity, end- user options, and tuning support.

The WMW performance blow off valve for $64 is a great bang for the buck mod you can actually feel. http://www.waymotorworks.com/wmw-per...off-valve.html

Id recommend a Methanol system but with that and a tune your looking at 900-1000$ so i would have to agree with the access port
