Ridiculously cheap. Never heard of the shop though. Most shops charge ~400-500 for a finished, straight forward tune.

 

In Indianapolis my friend got a tune for 150 it took three and a half hours and he's a subie owner knows them very well.

 

Expect to pay 400-500 for a good tune. It beats buying a new motor and labor lol. Just make sure you research where you get your tune from. GL hope you get your baby running right

 

$150 for a dyno tune? Most shops charge almost that per hour for just utilizing the dyno (not including the tune). I've paid that little for a dyno tune ($125) but it was a hook up. A road tune on the other hand, $150-250 is about average. Still, for a dyno tune, $400-500 is about the average you pay not including whatever engine management you use. If you have a more advanced setup (my tune would have cost me $750 without my current hook up) or a stand alone, then prices can double.

That being said, a reputable tuner > an inexpensive tuner. Not saying that a reputable one can't be cheap, but I would go with someone proven and more expensive than someone with less experience who costs less.

 

COBB is getting pretty good if you buy thier product about writing you a tune and emailing it to you to match your parts.

It sounds as though you are looking to stay affordable. We have had a similar situation at one time with almost the same parts so heres my full advice.

Buy a COBB APV2. With the K&N typhoon on stage 2 it ran like crap and did the flutter at top end. Ditch the K&N and get the COBB SF which is meant to run with the stage 2 setup.

Just my .02. There are many other ways to do this however. The best thing I can reccomend beyond that is find a tuner in your area. Look at some of the setups he has done make friends, and get a tune.

 

Cobb does not do e-tuning.

 

I agree with you on that, as I now I'm just stayin under 4000 rpm an not pushing boost.

 

I'm looking into the Cobb found one on amazon for 435 but I have to email them for the correct map? So what exactly is the COBB SF? That's the intake right?

 

And I'm waiting on the show zone to call back right now

 

Yeah the Cobb sf is thier intake.

 

They have pre staged maps though and one of the maps is for the Cobb intake, could just sell the intake buy a Cobb AP and Cobb intake and run there stage 2 w/ intake map.

Don't forget to research that shop your waiting to hear from

 

I would not run a Cobb ots map with your mods Btw

I had an overboost problem with my vf39 set up a little bit ago.
I had choices, either Paul at FW tuning for a protune (great tuner will go to him in the future for other services) or get a protune map for a Cobb ap through Clark turner tuning.
The Clark tuning is an E tune. You will read many bad reviews on Clark, as he is constantly swapped with orders and has millions of emails a day I can imagine. Clark fixed my overboost and it runs perfectly can't thank that guy enough. I already had an AP Though, so for a new one and a Clark tune it's gonna run you 750, at that price I would have gone to Paul for 500, decision is ultimately yours, but I would recommend Clark if your looking to save 250 and it seems like you are... 150 for a dyno tune is ridiculously cheap...
I wouldn't trust it unless the shop had many reviews and other Subaru owners with past experience there.

I don't see why not as he is stage 2 and there is a tune for header. The only monkey he has in there is the k&n intake. Ots stage 2 map should be fine.

 

and the intercooler, no? then again, cobb ots maps tend to run rich, probably wouldn't hurt
