Default How much $ for a tune?

I just want to get a general idea of how much it would cost to get tune to fix an air/fuel ratio problem.
The exact thing is happening to my car in this thread:

So how much do you think for a fix? (I want an idea so I dont get ripped off)

If your lucky enough to have local guys for tuning purposes, they often charge at around 250 or 300. Otherwise, the cheapest you will get is Brand names like Thunder or Formato, which is what I'd do.

are you planning a cam in the future. might as well make sure when you do spend the 500 bux for the tune that the tuner will hook you up when you bring it back with the cam installed. b/c it would be a PITA if you had to pay another 250or 300 for another dyno tune. just my .02
