Default VAFC Tuning

I'm looking for a reputable shop that can tune a Apexi VAFC II for my S. I dont mind driving to the northern states to get this done. I just want it done right. Anyone in mind?

i have seen anywhere in the range of $300 to $450... depending on how many pulls they do to get it tuned right.

I've heard they don't make a big difference if you're otherwise stock. Most of us are not now and I'm wondering if my computer needs a little adjusting for the better breathing on both ends.

i've seen people gain 4-5hp throughout the range and somewhere between 10 to 15 hp between 8500 and 9k. I just want to smooth out the power... most dyno graphs show a rich A/F mixture right before vtec and close to red line.
