Default how long for a tune?

I've been searching around for a tuner and have found only 3 around my area that will do it and they all have different prices.
1st place-625, includes chip and unlimited time, only downfall is they want to keep the car 3-5 days so its perfect when it leaves.
2nd place-550, includes chip and 2 hours of tuning, 125 for every additional hour
3rd place-399 for chip, 150 per hour of tune

so basically how long did it take you n/a 347 stangs to get tuned? if its under 2 hours i'll be going to the 2nd place and more than that obviosuly the first. I know it varies a lot but just fill me on how long it takes, thanks.

I think the first one who is going to unlimited time to make it right would be my choice.

yeah the first place has a much better rep and much nicer facility its Livernois if anyones heard of it, altho the second one specializes in mustangs while the first does pretty much everything. I think your right tho i'll just drop it off to the first place on a monday and pick it up on friday, now just gotta get the car going again

yeah whats up ctgreddy wheres the news is it running again?

oh and livernois is a very well known facility from what i have heard and seen.and they want to keep it so long so they cant get it prime for runnability,cold starting thats another reason they want to keep it.

i would take it to them and get it back in a few days runnin prime.

still waiting on woody but from what he told me it should be done soon, i'm crossing my fingers i get it by this next friday :/
and yes i am just going to take it to livernois, they said when it leaves they will stand by it that it won't have any problems caused by a tune or lean out again...which is a big sigh of relief
