<![CDATA[Tuning shop recommendations]]>Currently on the hunt for a reputable tuning shop that has good experience with megasquirt and tunerstudio. So far I have only talked to one shop local to me, VL performance. Only thing I was a bit skeptical about was their pricing, they wanted $1050 for a standalone ecu tune and a required pre dyno inspection. I thought this seemed a bit pricey and I couldn't figure why they charged by the job instead of hourly but being that I have never had anything dyno tuned before I know nothing so please correct me if this is a fair price for what it is. Otherwise, If there is anyone you know of that does good work that you would recommend I would greatly appreciate it. I am willing to travel to neighboring states if need be.

Thanks!

I think they do good work (most of the time), but they are definitely at the high end of the price spectrum for everything they do.
