Tuning advice - protune or not?

I am running an '08 Evo GSR. Here are the mods:

Greddy SE catback
Ichiba test pipe
ETS Intake
Nisei UICP
Cobb Accessport with Stage 2 map.


I have a Perrin ECBS that I have not installed, but would like to.


I am trying to decide whether or not to have the car protuned or not, and whether or not to stay with the AP, or swap to Opensource or ???.

What do you guys think? What kind of gains could be made by installing the ECBS and having it protuned over the OTS Cobb stage 2 map?

Are there any other options? There are no shops anywhere near where I live to have the car tuned. I'd be travelling quite far.

Thanks for the input in advance.

You will always see gains over an OTS map with a pro tune.

As for Opensource vs AP, I prefer opensource, but you have the AP, so use it. :-)
