Re-flash prices?
Nope, if anybody needs an ecutek tune and is located in the southeast goto TopSpeed, amazing quality work and cheap, 140 for an ecutek tune, half the price of the bulk of the other vendors.....What I do not understand is why/how tuners think they can charge so much for ecutek tuning when it is really no more involved/complicated than anything else....

Much nicer tuning software! Not to mention the slight to moderate advantages
It has in flexibility in respect to tuning! hehe
Hence the higher than normal price! I think once the end user feature is available
It will make all the differce.
I believe AL from Dynoflash will offer an end user with his tune, witch is what I would
Call a great idea! I wish I could have been a bit more patient with what I had, but I jumped on the ecutek bandwagon! I have no regrets with the ecutek, but to you’re post! Makes you wonder!

After the mandatory fee, it is up to the tuner to set the pricing, not Ecutek.
Sorry I thought it was clear I was talking about a follow up/ after tuning charges, TTP and everybody that commented is correct, the 650 is flat no matter were you go, or at least should be for the cost of the tune, 140 an hour is for future/following tunes!

so... i bought my car evo used with 38000, it came from california. i tried to get a buddy of mine to do some basic maps, he couldn't because he said it was "locked". does this mean that my ecu was flash by ecutek? and if so, does this mean that my ecu is licensed, that i wouldn't need to pay the initial 650? also how do you determine what kind of reflash you need and or want, ... by mods?

I paid $650 for the ECUtek license and approx. $150 for the first 2 hours of dyno-time due to some necessary troubeshooting (loosing power due to crappy HKS SSQ BOV)...now, I pay for dyno-time ONLY on any reflash and/or tuning. My tuner does not charge for further adjustments/tuning....
