Your ecu remap details
Your estimate sits within the typical range.
A custom dyno tune costs more than a generic remap but is tailored to your car and mods, which is safer and more effective. Supporting mods (exhaust, intake, intercooler) affect what a tune can safely achieve.
💰 Ways to save
- Aftermarket parts are cheaper than genuine and fine for most jobs, ask your mechanic which matters here.
- Do related wear parts at the same time while the area is already apart, it saves a second labour charge.
- Get a couple of quotes, labour rates and parts mark-ups vary a lot between workshops.
