Protuning in the DC area. Best place? Avg pricing?

Who do you recommend? What is the average pricing i should expect to pay in this overinflated DC economy?

Thanks!

No you don't, you have two posts!
But since I have a different EM, I could not give you any of the opinions you are looking for.

There is only two places AFAIK in the DC area: PTuning and MachV. Cobb is like Harley in the sense that they give any of the ProTuners a territory.

Thoughts:
PTuning - New at Protuning. The one tune I have seen by them was VERY safe. They are also a sponsor, so you will probably get a discount (check first).
MachV - Been around awhile and has a reputation for giving safe tunes as well.

Have you thought about going Open Source tuning?

I wanna say TurboXS (Gaithersburg, MD) does some tuning (on their products only) but I'm not entirely sure.

I have not heard a status from PTuning for protuning 2.5L engines. Last time I asked them about getting my XT tuned, they only did the 2.0L but maybe that has changed.

There is also IAG Performance and Agile Automotive in MD for protuning.

Protuning is usually $400-$500.

FWIW I've heard good things about Hill @ Agile.

Good thing I searched before I posted. I was about to ask this same question. Looks like i'm taking a day off and going to Gaithersburg.
