what would someone charge to tune my car????

Is there anyone here that has HP tuners that would tune my car? If so what would you charge to do so? I want to see what kind of power I can get out of my car over the stock parameters.

I might look into this a lil bit later on. I was just wondering what someone would charge me. Would you just charge me the credits I need plus a lil extra? if so how much would that be. What is the wideband o2 sensor that your talkin about?

a wideband 02 sensor monitors your AFRs which is critical to tuning any car

credits are 50 so id prob charge 100 its a few hours of work

Well I'll get back to you a lil bit later down the road see if I can locate a wideband. Do you think it would be a significant increase in power for the money? Wondering if this is the make it or break it in to the 15's after my exhaust and what not.

really the only things that can be done to a NA OHV 2200 is getting the volumetric efficiency correct, theres some power and gas mileage benefit to that on a boosted car. For example on my supercharged ecotec I've observed up to 25% error on VE, on QBE's Turboed Eco, up to 45% error but NA eh well it wont be much prob in the area of less than 5%, what does that mean to you maybe a mpg or two more , less than 5hp gain

Point being that whenever you do air and fuel mods, such as bigger injectors or TBs, intake manifolds, cams, your volumetric efficiency changes, your putting more or less air or fuel than what the stock tables contain, the more air and fuel the bigger the effects, on a stock car I doubt adding an intake, TB, and intake manifold would change much as far as VE, of course all depends on how far off GM is to start with, they always play it conservative
