This and that. Some tuners (at least where I'm at) will tell you to have one before you take it in or buy one from them.

dyno is a lot better then a canned tune, i have a sniper tune and I was only able to get 241/274 out of it with my mods. Torque is what is really gained from a good dyno tune, I say that only because from what I've seen most people have 290's for torque numbers with less mods. I say dyno tune.
