When I searched I saw the group buys with flash tune only for $500(30 minutes and your out the door), with options for +$150 more for custom tune + dyno. This group by was for the full package. I dont want them to just zap my car, I want a pro to tune it too. I do miss alot and may have missed something else going on in 2012, you should start a thread.

Shyt man thats a good deal! BUT its 348 miles and almost 7 hours of driving One Way! I would have to add in $150-$200 for gas at least(pemium is like 4.25/gal here, how much is it in NY?), before I even get in to food drinks, hotel rooms. I would end up way over($750-$850 depending on how cheap of a motel I can find). Plus I would rather pay my diposit to the shop 30 minutes away, with records and copys, and not a person I dont know and may not be able to track down,(no to mention if anything goes wrong with the car and I have to take it back for ANY reason, then my tune is going to cost me over a $1000). Thanks for the link and input! I did miss that one but I may have only searched MD and VA.

Information is always welcome. I wished I lived in a state where there are dozens of tuner shops competing for my business. Unfortunatly I live in the Republic of Virginia. There are less then a dozen import tuner shops in DC MD and VA combined. And most of them specialize in euro cars. Too few specialize in Japanese makes, and fewer still who know the VQ motors front to back. I dont trust a porsche or bmw or even the subaru tuner to do a better job then a shop that has been tuning VQ engines for years. All though I see Moore is now putting up a fight

We have a highly skilled tuner at PTUNING that he done tune on most 350z/370z/G35/G37 as well. Up Rev isn't new to him because he will not stop tuning till he feel the vehicle have reach to the max for best tuning he can offer. Usually tuning session is longer than 30 mins, it take 2-4 hours or longer to perfect the tune, it given more time to tune such as cool-down break to let the engine cool down as the engine is turn off and turn back on for re-tune.

If there actually a vehicle that doing Up Rev tune upcoming week, I am more than welcome to have you watch our tuner during tuning session in the dyno room.

Just a few questions:

When a tune is done, how many and what types of maps are loaded?

And if there is an 'economy' tune loaded, is it done just based on a dyno @ 55mph, or is it based on a road test?

not to crap you thread Doug, but again i see it for less for the same type of tune!

I guess these isn't may other options for this service in the area so your priced for the market of shops in a 100 mile radius of you guys.

If you're going to do it you better do the full dyno tune, for $500 with no dyno you're better off getting Osiris standard direct from uprev with the etunes. At least then you get the cable.

Bump for a good price on a legit dyno tune tho
full Dyno tune for less is what I can find no problem.
as i said this price is ok for the target area market i guess
