When i return from Iraq, im doin a stall and H/C and ill probably get a street tune from chauncey or another guy i know.
You know dude if you dont like the price thats fine,dont be a dick about it.
If you knew how much time Brian puts into a tune and everything he does,plus the $40,000 in equipment it takes to do CORRECTLY you would see things a little differently.

WOW!!! Seems like a few in this thread should take a Midol for their PMS. Guess Aunt Flow is going to visit next week.
Is dyno time included in the $450 along with driveablitiy tuning? If so that is not a bad price if the tuner knows what he is doing and takes his time. If dyno time is extra then it's a not a good deal.

That is not a lot of oil considering I bet your right foot has been busy lately. It's a safe bet you will use that much at a track rental.

I agree.... $450 is SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
Cheap its not even funny.... esp when you cant even buy tuning software for that much.....
Spending $500+ on these cars is easy..... almost any mod that is worth a **** is more then that.....
If ya have a hard time stomaching that..... then maybe you should move onto a new Hobby.......
Thats just the way i feel and im just letting my fingers fly after reading all this...........
Ive never said i KNOW everything..... but ive done quite a damn bit and have had just about every combo out there....
Tuning is BY FAR the #1 spot where $$ needs to be spent...
It can make or break you and if done wrong... BLOW **** UP!!!!!
Now i can see with only bolt-ons like yours where tuning shouldnt be needed.... even for exhaust including LT's....
Now a cam and heads or spray...... for sure.
Ill be talking with Shawn and Brian about maybe a base for cars that dont need full on street driving tuning and lil mods..... ie gears, and other lil things....
