Who are YOU to try and dictate what I should charge for my work?

Let's look at this rationally. I am an H3 person and I want a tune for my truck. I'm looking for a tune, but gee, there's not really a whole lot out there, and those who do offer tuning few and far between for my truck want almost $499 for a tune. I could always buy a jet chip for about $300 though - but that doesn't do squat. And you want to talk about generic? One size jet chip fits all. Hmm, not going to cut it.

So what if a person decides to do it themselves. They plunk down $500 for an individual HPtuners software license that looks greek to 95% of people out there. Or even if they do know what's going on - they don't have the years and years of experience tuning all GM vehicles like we have.

Suddenly, our prices are starting to sound better and better. When you factor in customer service, the ability to borrow a PCM if need be, the years of experience - you see our prices are a value. If you can't see that, you obviously haven't been shopping around.

My prices are incredibly affordable for what you are getting. This isn't just changing one map, as much as you would like to believe. This is an ENTIRE custom tune tailored to your vehicle. On each tune I make around 50-60 changes impacting engine, transmission, speedometer, etc etc.

I won't even get into what it costs me to make this happen - you don't want to know my margin of profit after I've paid for the vehicle licensing, equipment, advertising, PCM's, research and development, shipping supplies, oh how the list goes on.

Not so fast buddy, let's not compare what you are giving the members to a $500 Custom Tune or how much some custom tuning software costs that you are not giving them either.

So you are telling me that you are going in a making 50-60 changes that you have no idea of what the impact is and don't even have their vehicle there to test it?

Please make a believer out of me and explain these 50-60 changes? Don't worry, I am not asking for the number you input into each cell.

I would love to hear a report of how these tunes work towing a trailer, facing the wind in Summer heat.

Please tell me that you provide the customer a copy of this license and number that you are inlcuding in the cost?

This is too funny..... I am outta here - you guys can pay your hard earned money for this if you want.
