I liked the AP because I could go back to a stock map any time I needed to.
Now that I know that S to the 2 can re-flash back to stock, I'm leaning towards the re-flash.
I don't know if it works with the '04 and '05 models, but they can also set it so you can switch between two different maps on the fly or something. Nate has explained it before, and it seems pretty cool.

while the go pedal is at WOT, press the defroster button. it's safest to do with the car on but not running, but can be done while driving. it's actually fun to switch from low to high boost on the freeway. it's like warp drive kicking in.

I am also trusting my tuning with Nate @ S-Squared. I'm actually dropping my car off in an hour, heh.
