Co$$$$$T for a tune gone UP??

[Pokageek]

Ok, so far two places I have called want a lot of $$ for a tune. One place wants $850 using the chip I have and the other wants $250hr X at least 2 hours plus the money for a chip - $350. YUCK. What happened to me reading about $500 for a tune?

Where the heck are you located??? That is some INSANE prices, especially for an NA combo.

Hi KC. I live in Maryland. I don't know why these guys are so high other than it seems there are far a nd few shops in between.

Yeah, I think there are like 4-5 sct tuners in ONE county in about a 20mile radius from one another and prices are around 500-550-ish here. Then on top of that I think 1-2 other shops that use diff. tuners in a 40-50 mile radius. Thats not even counting the "tuner/ricer" shops that do it as well.

dude where are you looking!? I just booked an apppointment with Kauffman Motorsports which right outside of MD in PA for $500-550. It's about an hour from me and I have heard nothing but good reviews about them and their work. Where are you located?

other than them being booked till the 2nd week in may....

You could by a tweecer and do the tuning yourself. Save a ton of money, just a lot more work though.

I HIGHLY recommend Kauffman's. I have been going there since '01 when they first started way back in their old facility out in the country. Dave is a GREAT tuner and is EXTREMELY helpful and nice and he takes the time to tell you what all is going on and what he did. Chris and Matt are cool guys as well.

 

[Pokageek]

Well that does it. If Paul recommends them then I'm there. Thanks alot for the input guys!

p.s. I have a 2001-04 lightening MAF I just bough. Hopefulyy, they can put that in too.
