Default To Tune OR Not To Tune?

I called Z car garage and spoke to Rob (nice guy) and asked about tuning the Z. He said they only do tunes with the UpRev software and that it would be when all is said and done somewhere between $620-$750. Kinda seems good, considering that the UpRev itself is about $500. I also wanted to know how it works if lets say you trade in/sell your car, do you just leave the car tuned? Wanted to get some opinions and maybe someone who has had it done at Z car garage.

Thanks

I'm interested to know this as well. Can you release the license from the car and sell the UpRev kit to another Z owner if you decide to go back to stock. I know with my FlashPro it could only be locked to one car at a time but I was able to sell it once unlocked.

To transfer the license you have to flash your car back to stock.
