Well do you mean tune as in edit? Then your looking at $1k pretty much. Tune as in fiddle here and there and check the difference, maybe $150-200.

Although hold your horses, because there is a new edit thing coming out called Stinger. More competition will mean lowering of costs.

Well first you need to make your mind up about the engine. PS - go the AU

And then you need to work out what it is you need the tune for. These guys, although obviously interstate, are the first signs of tunes becoming cheaper.

$400 tune, yes please!

I cant give you an exact answer with the box, but no great reason why a T5 from an e series wont fit an AU as they have T5's aswell. Then again, if you are going to seriously boost it then an auto might be the way to go, depends on what you want.

There are HEAPS of threads about it, do a search.

As for the engine, rip that old MPFi POS out and put the AU in (with mods of course). You will need all the wiring and ecu's etc.

Again, threads about it all over the place.

Mate just grab an AU wreck and transfer everything you can if you want to be serious about it.

Also before I said stinger, I meant sniper..sorry.
