The people at www.dynotune.com charges $100-$125 an hour and they quoted me 2-4 hours to do the work. They also seemed to know what they were talking about.

It really depends on the car, when I had mine tuned they had it on the dyno for about an hour and a half, and then we worked out some driveability issues on the street for another couple hours. It would probably run you around 500 for a chip and tune at dynolabs, but call and talk to Ray and tell him what your situation, he was pretty helpful to me.

I've read in other posts that Bill at Apex motorsports is a tuning god. That's were I plan to take mine after I get it set up the way I want. I think the wait will be better than letting someone I've never heard of work on my car.

Bill no longer owns Apex and as far as I know he never did any tuning... [ November 12, 2004, 11:14 AM: Message edited by: Jeff S ]

Yep, and Byron was the tuning god you so speak of. He tuned at apex and mustang ranch, but hes retired now and no longer tunes at all.
