Again here is the process.

1) Start Cipher, set the parameters to log, and run it. Do some 0-60-90 runs, do some Highway pulls.

2) Send them the logs.

3) They adjust the ECU parameters they did of your car on the dyno to what it needs now.

4) They email them back to you and you update your ECU. And you are done.

Cipher is $300. Osiris on top of that is $400. Dyno Tune another $150.
I'm not following the part about the Dyno Tune. How can you say that dyno tune time is only $150? Doesn't that depend on his tuner? And it sounds to me like his tuner already told him that he charges $400 for the dyno tune. In any case, why would he purchase Cipher/Osiris and then pay for a dyno tune on top of that? I thought the whole selling point of Osiris was that you can use their eTune service in lieu of a full-blown dyno tune and save some money that way. i.e., it's one or the other, not both. (?)
