I got one and wouldnt trade ut for anything, hold the button and launch the car at 20+ #s of boost is incredible.
PLus i bought one so as i can manually shift the car, i pull it to around 6000 or so and dont feel like playing with the govenor a bunch of times to get it perfect and i no longer ever roll thru the beams building boost.

$70.00 (or was it 75?) per hour plus race gas. He uses VP (and hates CAM 2). First, the car comes in the shop and gets the once over by one of his guys to make sure all is OK like zip ties on all vacuum lines, coolant topped off, no leaks anywhere and if need be they weld a bung in your downpipe for his wideband. Then they make sure a sufficient supply of go-go juice is in the tank and it sits outside to warm up. After a few minutes, the man, the myth, the legend, Job (or Job Jr.) walks out with his wideband, laptop and a fire extinguisher (they once watched a 9 second car burn to the ground on the side of the highway once. Ever since then, they take an extinguisher just in case). Once in the car he starts tapping away at the keys immediately. You make your way through town to the highway onramp where you see him buckle his seat belt. This is a good indication that things are about to get scarey. Also a good time to pop on the 5 point harness. For the next hour or so you basically beat the living snot out of your car on this highway. Last time we tuned the car we had my GN to an indicated (by the VSS) 150+mph. A very enlightning experience in a 3600+lb. Buick with no front sway bar, 90/10 front shocks and 50/50 rear shocks. The look on peoples faces as you are next to them doing 60mph and then smoking the tires as Job gives you the sign to squeeze on the throttle.
It's a heart pounding experieince for sure. Last time out, the tune ran around $200 or so.
