Southwest (phoenix) LET custom dyno tune interest

How many people would be interested in a flash tune or even a custom dyno tune from LET? They are willing to come to the Phoenix area, and if you're interested in their custom tune, a forum member has been able to secure a dyno dynamics machine at a very reputable shop for the tuning session (DynoComp). If you just need a flash tune, LET will be here so you have zero down time by avoiding having to send in your ECU.

The date is still optional but we need to know how much interest there is.

As per their website, LET currently tunes the following Mercedes vehicles:

C230K, C320, C32, C55, CL55, CL600, CLS55, CLK55, E55, S600, S55, SL55, SLK230K, SLK32, SLK55

For more info, their website is www.LETmotorsports.com

I'm interested, but I've never heard of these guys and not sure if their tune is as good as Kleenman or Renntech
What would they charge for an SL65?

LET is dreaming at $2,500. That's how much all the shops in the country are charging for a Kleenman tune.
Not sure how much Kleenman is kicking the shops back out of that $2,500, probably somewheres between $500 to $1,000.
Thanx for checking into it otherwise though. Just too many people price gouging whoever they can get to save their sinking ships with this crap economy.
