From unigroup:

Nistune board:
Supply - $220
Fit & test run on dyno $150
We already have ecu's fitted and ready to go with Nistune boards, available on an exchange basis. So we can get you going in asap.


Tuning:
$350-$750 from basic to maximum detail and effort.

I asked them about my s15 and they said that fitted chip and basic tune will start from $750 which is very reasonable. I mean you would pay same kind of money to buy fit and tune safc...

They won't be doing a great deal at a minor tune-up. It will probably be stuff like checking the timing and doing a few power runs. You might find that they will set the boost to the safest level too.

That said its still great value. It is a basic health-check and will let you know if your car is running properly
