Default Average cost for a Vortech tune?

Not including install, what would be the average cost for tuning a Vortech S/C on a stock 2004 350Z? Any peronal experience or input would be great.

$300-$500 for the initial tune. Cheaper after that if you go to the same tuner.

My initial tune was $200, but the SS Box was pre-tuned from a buddy of mine. I had a discount of 15% as well.

Tuning is going to vary, based on the experience of the shop/tuner, the type of dyno used, and a host of other factors. Some shops will make 5 pulls and say...done. Others will actually tune the engine completely. You basically get what you pay for. We charge $400 for a split second tune.

Sharif tuned my Vortech after I installed it. He got me an extra 30 whp over the initial SS setup. Well worth the cost and the drive up there (220 miles for me).

Default SS Vortech tune

We have a G35 coming in with a SS box and a Vortech SC. We are charging him $350.00 to fully optimize his maps.
