Even 4-6 hours on the dyno.If the the price of that tune came out of a well known and reputable tuner in Sydney then it's correct.If you are paying 500 for a custom tune then it may have not been very custom. 1-2 hours dyno time.

Its middle of the road. The old saying you pay peanuts you get monkeys!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
