usually $400 for a dyno tune. Your going to need a different catback to make it louder and it isn't worth blowing 400 for a tune since you haven't done anything to it. The whole point of the tune is to dial in the air/fuel ratio, shift points etc- it won't gain you any power. if you want some power throw in a comp cam, or headers, both will give you a minimum of 20hp and make it louder, then get the tune.

Well that's a matter of opinion... in the case of an A4, ok sure. Better shift points and firmness tailored to the owner and performance along with smoother and slightly better acceleration. Other than that, wait for some mods. ONLY reason I got a tune when I was basically stock is because I bought the car with BAD knock and deleting the hypertech tune and pulling timing didn't get rid of the knock.
