Need help getting car tuned!

[lwevert]

I just ordered some parts for my 2007 Redline:

CTI header and cat-back
2.62 pulley, tensioner, gm2 belt
60# injectors
k&n typhoon CAI
NGK spark plugs

I need to get my car tuned. I cannot seem to find anyone in San Antonio who will tune my car unless I have my own software. Which I really don't want to buy hptuners for one tune. Plus I don't want to do it myself because I don't want to dedicate the time to learn how. I'm lazy and computer dumb. If anybody knows a place where I can get tune let me know. I will go a little ways if I have to. Quicker the better would be best. All the parts are just setting in my garage. Which equals the wife nagging at me.

From what I've seen, a lot of these cars are requiring winter tunes, or various updates over time.

You're better off getting the software and learning.

I just got off the phone with a shop and they said they will dyno tune the car with hp tuners for $600. That sounds like a resonable price. What do you think? I don't want to get the software and worry about learning to program it and take the bus to work, because the car is jacked up? From what I read about HP tuners it is not an easy program to use, especially for beginners.

Sounds Kinda steep to me how much per hour

How much will they charge for retunes when something goes awry?

The $400 for the dyno tune and $200 for the hptuner license. That was the cheapest I found in San Antonio. One place wanted $1700, but the average was 1000-1200 to include the dyno and buy there software. How hard do you think it would be to do my own tune? Because one place would do the tune for $125 an hour if Ihad my own software? So if I bought my own HP tuners roughly how hard would be to learn to use it?
