Speed Source is in Warkworth, which isn't to far from the shore.

Beaten too it!

Edit: But doubt you would be able to get a full tune for anywhere near $400 through anyone.

Isn't a tune at places like GCP worth at least a grand?

[Guest boostcut]

if the computer isnt what they specialise in yes. or have some copy of a previous "similar car"

you can have a tune run into 10s of thousands.

gary always does tunes for me for cheap but i've spent a bit with him. thoroughly recommended. if you don't want to spend much you can always just get it road tuned.

My last one cost $800 and he had major issues getting the tune right.

That one was with a Micro Tech computer using a hand controller too hahaha

So no doubt it you had a brand new link with a common engine/turbo setup it could be cheaper!

[funkytown]

doubt it.. id say $800min for a new and in full tune..

is it only a single boost map? if its a hand controller possum link as well this will take longer.

in all honesty, you would be best to actually ring the workshops to get a price.

a $400 full dyno tune in my opinion wouldn't be a very good one as obviosly there not spending very much time doing the tune.

Most workshops will be charging between $100-200 per hour for dyno tuning, but this again varys depending on the job and how busy the shop is.

To give you some rough ideas on basic pricing

possum link or G1 tune is about $700,

G2 or newer is about $800-$1000

Retune is usually around the $400 mark,

though it does come down to the qualitity of the old tune and if theres any issues that arise.

thanks guys my cars going into gcp this week got quoted $550 for a fairly basic tune

What everyone said above and any good tuners dont like playing with possumlinks that much from what iv been told they are very basic and a pain to tune compared to say a g4..

Tune is something you better to pay a bit more for and get it done right seen as it will be the make or brake of the car.. I See it beneficial to spend a extra 800-1000 on a tune if you spent 6k on your motor..Dont you?

I vote for GCP. Gary really is a fantastic tuner. That way you get a decent drive home along the motorway in your newly tuned beast.
