I've paid to have a previous car pro-tuned (call it what ever you want) on a a Mustang dyno with every precaution taken for every change made to that car (not my 86, yet). I always felt it was worth it, but not everyone has the time or money to do so. For those people, the OFT and Shiv's off-the-shelf tunes represent great value. My "old" (based on a Subaru 2007 Spec.B) had WELL over 100 dyno runs. My 86 will be lucky to see 20-30 pulls, no matter what I choose to do with it.
Bottom line, off-the-shelf is adequate for 90% (or more) of car owners out there. If you crave that extra bit of performance and driveability, then you should absolutely eventually get a custom tune. But most people will be well served by the value of the OFT and Shiv's hard, thoughtful work.

Yes the 1.55 stage one is excellent. I guarantee if Shiv tuned the twins for Toyota/Subaru before releasing them all those "only thing wrong with car...."reviews would never exist.
