brett just said one of his buddy's had difficulties getting a good tune from him

 

That's rare. But it could happen. Every build is different. Usually it's correctable with a revision or 2. In house on a dyno is preferable though. Both [MENTION=141720]Z7What[/MENTION] & [MENTION=76903]fordmotorsport[/MENTION] had good experiences with him.

 

Ive know a guy with a shelby gt500 with a kenne bell that gets all his Ford work done by a certain shop. They specialize in mustangs so mine should be a piece of cake for them.

 

Just curious,any of you guys know the estimated cost to put a truck on the dyno?

 

With tuning, roughly 500. Just depends on the shop.

And how many pulls & # of tunes.

 

No tuning,just to see numbers.
I know a few people that would like to see what they're pushing. If there was a good group deal I wouldn't mind seeing what my numbers are even thought it'll be only a bit over stock

 

An actual dyno tune is typically $400 to $550. Or just throwing it up on the dyno to see your numbers, with wideband sniffer, usually $60 to $100 for three pulls. Cost can vary from location to location but that's about normal.

 

the friend of the friend's friends also had high horsepower trucks too. Like 800-900hp..how do you really tune through emails then. Sooo many parameters that if one is left out it could be catastrophic. For a lightning swap onto a truck it's easy for these tuners but high hp is different. My .02

 

. That's why any good tuner should typically be sending you a start up email tune, have you load it, do a few moderate street pulls, datalog it and send them the files, they revise the tunes as needed and have you do some wot pulls and datalog and revise as needed. But again that's typically on one off or non typical builds. Regardless of what type of power you are making, it's more of a question is it a combo that's been done pretty commonly, or more of a one off build which would need more data logging and tune revisions

 

Thats the whole reason once the Charger goes on its getting towed and dyno'd to be tuned.. E85 is tricky as hell..
