i'm talking in terms of cost though......the mini afc is $160 but it's gonna cost over $100 for a shop to tune and test on a dyno....so i might get the PRO-M and see how it goes..i contacted the company selling it and they said I can return it if I'm not happy. Hell, why not get it then?

wow, not saying you havent looked around, but the mini afc's can be found VERY often for LESS than $100 on
www.clubgp.com
just do NOT get the 1.0, the 1.1 is better and the 2.2 is best, but the 2.1 is fine as well.
as for dyno tuning. if you have to make more than 3 pulls on the dyno to tune in your a/f ratio, then obviously there is something wrong with the user or the car.
the dyno tech does not need to do anything but run your car, they dont tune it, they cant, you just move the % on the AFC.
so lets recap....
AFC 1.1 ~$50 shipped or AFC 2.1 ~$80-100 shipped (used of course and i bet you could find better prices too)
3 dyno pulls should NOT cost over $75, hell an hour should not cost over $100 EVER. most places charge 2 pulls for $50-60, or 3 for $75-90.
so if your lucky and look around for the best deals, your gonna get an AFC and dyno time for less than $150. hell you could even street tune it for free and it would only cost you as much as you spend on the AFC.
dont get the pro-m, seriously, its really a waste of money
