$450 here .... next tune is nearly half the cost ($250) with a half dozen dyno pulls to go with it. It's the first tune that costs a lot 'cause it takes time for all the basic stuff before the tuners start to really 'dial in' the power ... IMHO.

Jeff Creech in NC charges $450 or $500 (can't remember) for the first tune, and then all you pay for after that is dyno time ($50 per 1/2 hour). So re-tunes are pretty cheap.Not sure if he's a sponsor here, so just do a search on-line for Milkman. Good luck!
