Default Cost For Dyno Tuning?

I am gunna get my car retuned, what do you guys think is a fair price for them to dyno tune it? They charged me $650 for a gear install because of my watts link having to be messed with to get into the diff. so i dont know how fair of prices they are giving me.

Our local dyno charges roughly $350 for a 4 hour dyno tune session.

ok i just gave them a call. he said if you have a diablosport tuner its a no go. if you have an SCT and assuming you have a healthy car (doesnt need spark plugs etc) he will do it for $450.

That's not a dyno tune though, is it? If it's not but they say a non-dyno tune is "just as good" ,... RUN!
