You also need to have a certified ecutek dealer near you, so basically if you don't live in California you're gonna have to go on a trip.

You don't need a local dealer; there's a tried and proven Ace specific tune, that is available for purchase.
An Ace header on ACN 91 makes more power than almost any other header on E85. You can easily delete the FF kit, to keep cost down.
The reason for the Ace header is not just more power, but the fact that it completely eliminates the torque dip. Other headers can delete the dip as well, but not without the overall power gains. Even with a very simple hp/dollar metric, the Ace actually has the highest hp/dollar ratio, when you also factor in the sunk costs of EcuTek and a tune.
