Hi guys,

Im about to get the EB tuned properly after alot of debate and hassling I have found someone I trust to work on the car. And boy wasnt that a hassle, anyway.

How much would you expect to pay for a full custom tune for my car with its current setup? BA DOHC Engine with stock xr6t turbo and BF PCM. From what ive read it’s roughly somewhere around $600-$800 for a decent tune. Most people around Canberra are trying to charge me $1200!

Am I being too cheap or is this what it costs for this sort of thing?

I doubt it, but has anyone has any luck with tuners in Canberra...

Between $100-$175 an hr seems to be the going rate.

I thought the SCT flash tuner was around $800ish itself, plus the tune?

this is down melbourne but i have rang a few places down here just for a tune + dyno its ruffly 300-400 but with a flash tuner or new computer etc it does vary. so ya would think it should ruffly be the same there :S

personally i would recomend independentmotorsports in morwell.
they seem to get alot of BA/BF's going there and alot of them pulling big power.
i got my car tuned there and it cost $600.
