Red face Haltech or PFC???? I can't decide!!!!

Right now, the mods are in my Sig. I'm planning to eventually go single turbo. I'll need an ECU by then, so I'm gonna get one pretty soon. Problem is: which one? Haltech E6K or Apexi Power FC w/commander??? Don't you need a laptop to program the Haltech? Do both of them control my OMP? Premixing sounds kinda neandrethal? Is the Haltech hard to install? What about driveability and tuneablity? I've heard PFC can't handle 1600cc injectors or anything over 20psi of boost? What are the facts and what are the myths? Please someone help!!! Thanks!

Haltech:
can't control OMB
boost control on twins is tricky
wiring can be a big hassel
MAX performance
no injector limitations
easier tuning w/ saved maps

Apex:
controls twins better than anything on market
controls OMB
add on boost control kit will control single
AND let you run boost to 2.0kg/cm. (~28.4 psi)
no wiring problems
injector limitations (1500 cc injectors)
