Default Tuning in my area

I found a place that can dyno and tune my car once I get it together like an hour away

Told him my parts and asked what he could do for me.

First he suggested an SCT chip since he can program it. He can sell me it for $450 then to hook it up to the dyno sensors, etc..2 hours, plus another 4-6 hours to do a street tune...all at 150/hr. He said he does cold/hot start, part throttle, etc. Also suggested to get an SCT meter since C&L and Granelleti(sp?) aren't that great at part throttle.

I think $1050 is way out to lunch, huh?

And I found the SCT superchip selling for 279 that comes with a ballpark tune with a ton of your specs in the equation...
