Default Vafc Tuner

Hey guys, just wondering if anybody knows a vafc tuner. I was going to pick up one soon. Also, how much does it normally cost to get it tuned. I know you need to put it on a dyno for tuning but ive seen from 50-150 dollars for a good tuner.
Thanks for any help

Thanks for the numb, i called him and he advisd it would cost 200.. 1 hr dyno time. and 1-1/2 tune. 7-8 runs.

Isn't 200 a bit costly. I thought it was around 150 from what ive seen on post. I also mentioned if he can go to a dyno day when normally we can get it for 35-50 dollars but he advised he needs more than 3 pulls to tune it correcty.

What do you think of the price

I think he's saying 200 for the tune and dyno time. But you would have to confirm that with him...

It is 200 for both, but ive seen on the site other people pay 100-150 for everything..

I mean if you break it up..

Dyno for 5-7 pulls should be 80 dollars, and then 70 for the tune. Are tuners that expensive charging 80-130 an hour. Seems a bit high. Or is this the normal prices

On average pricing is very subjective. Andres at RAW works on my car and, I am sure, with fair prices. That cost includes their exceptional customer service...

The only tuning im looking for with the vafc is on wot,, no partial throtle or even vtec engagement change since with the partial, i heard you gotta keep on resetting the ecu and with the vtec engagmenet, ive read post on where it messes up if your on vtech for some reason occasionally. Should then the cost go down, I didnt mention this to him initially.
