Quote to tune MPPK

Found a dealership nearby that would tune for $155. They said it would take 1-2 hours to do. Is this a good price?

Good price. Some people pay over $400...

You likely will not get a much better deal than under $200

I was quoted $340 + taxes a few days ago.

Seems like dealers make up their own pricing for this

In your opinion, if you had to choose, MPPK or MPE first?

MPE does sound pretty good from what I've heard on here. Mppk didn't feel much different overall to me (just feels like it picks up quicker due to changed throttle mapping). Since they're similar in price, I'd go with MPE.

I'll throw a twist though. Wife said the car feels much more agile. And she thinks exhaust is a waste of money. Sooo yeah. Lol

MPE doesn't really add much power if any…

MPPK is quite expensive if you don't buy a code from somewhere else and get it programmed cheap…

I recommend getting a chip tune!

That's what everyone's saying. Just deciding what I should get first. Leaning towards the MPPK.

Being the factory option, MPPK makes the most sense to start with.
