CALL ME FRIDAY

 

The dyno packages I do through Blueridge are $500 turbo/$400 NA. When sitting down with BRMS to work the deal out, all the research on my end consisted of logging onto T1 R&D's site and seeing what Tony Palo charged. Cool, that's my market.

Keep in mind Howard at RLZ is a little over an hour away doing $200 dyno tunes. I didn't ever take his price scaling into consideration... he's a great tuner but my point is I could care less, he can have the $5 market. His dad is worth a couple tens of millions and he doesn't have to worry about feeding a family, I do. If I was rich like that, or single and kidless, I'd buy a dyno and do things exactly how he does them. The reality is I'm not.

Last guy who threw Howard's pricing in my face I asked why he was even talking to me? I'm booked 1-2 weeks in advance, I'm obviously doing something right, so don't punk me out if some other dude is so great (and a lot of other guys around here are great). I can understand why he got pissy with you, dude. At an average of 9 minutes per phone call I'd spend one to three hours a day on the phone talking to people if I ever answered my phone.

 

guess thats a good way of looking at it

 

i want jd to tune my hatch. but with the y8 head that it will have im sure he wouldnt want to. plus to add to the plate hes to far away......

 

I agree, 100%

I'm not sure playing tuners off each other for price is the best way to go about it. You can certainly do that with parts...one part is a part is a part. But you cant really put a price on a tuner...I still think I'm too cheap for my area, which is why my prices are going up soon as well.
