Nazgul Member 62 Member For: 17y 10m 20d Posted 18/07/08 01:25 AM Share Posted 18/07/08 01:25 AM I have been looking around for a while for someone to do a custom tune on my Typhoon.What should I expect to pay?One place quoted $950 just for the tune others are about $150 per hour on the dyno (Which is about what I have paid in the past)Jimmy Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/47724-cost-of-custom-tunes/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Guests Posted 18/07/08 01:28 AM Share Posted 18/07/08 01:28 AM Are you sure $950 wasn't with the flash box? Seems awfully high for just a tune on it's own!Average is anything around the $450 - $550 mark mate & that'll get your 3 slots filled on your box What state are you in?

You should really question how many hours your car spends on the dyno and how many hours of the operators time you are using to justify the 900-1000 dollar rates.

Fat-Tony Member 5,364 Member For: 19y 3m 28d Posted 18/07/08 03:34 AM Share Posted 18/07/08 03:34 AM (edited) Well you would think that the more of the cars the tuners tune, the more files they should have on hand to be able to tune with as a base reference, hence tuning time should be quicker, and price SHOULD have come down. Unless you were paying for previous R&D for the tunes, but you would have thought that the tuner would have incorporated that into the price of the cars that the R&D was done on, who works at a loss? Also one point to consider is that BF reflash time is WAY quicker than a BA, can't see the justification for the price of a BF being as expensive as a BA.
