Pick your tuner before you pick a system. These aren't things you want to mess around with yourself if you don't know what you are doing.
BTW, the preprogrammed map on the Power FC are not very good. It's a safe mode to allow you to get the car running so you can get it tuned.

Some very good points here. If you cannot tune your car with a computer yourself, then you do need to find a person that knows the particular setup.
As far as the poor base maps on the PFC go, I have found that more to be a problem with SR's, than with RB's, I do not know why? Though that is what I have seen. All the RB's I know that run them love them, hence my reason for going that way. Plus its a standlone computer, its not a piggyback. With current PFC pricing its a pretty reasonable deal as well. These things used to go for over 1k with the commander. Now you can get them for $750 all day long.
