APS TT or JWT TT?!?

If you get the turbo matching, intercooler sizing, fuel system design, etc, etc, wrong from day one then there's little that the tuner can do (other than replacing many parts) to rectify those issues.
Just my 2 cents worth.

yeah if you have a really knowledgable installer who just flat out knows the Z, he can install probably any kit you throw at him.
The big difference is when he gets something mounted and either leaves it or says "hmm this is ok I guess, but if I redid it this way and did this to it, it'd be a little bit better in the long run"
It's not uncommon for good installers to make their own brackets, remount things in different locations than the directions especially when the car already has aftermarket stuff that the kit wasn't designed with. Thermowrapping is also your friend for wrapping little things here and there to prevent rubbing or heat etc

At this point it is stupid to say that kit X is better then kit Y. So now it is all upto the installer/tuner to create the difference between make-it or break-it.
