Around $1,400 for the tune + V-Switch. Have been speaking to them re pricing.

Price went up apparently (a considerable amount).

That was a special introductory price. Which was one of the reasons I got mine when I did.Originally Posted by Candyman
Even at $1400 with the V-Switch, it's worth it.
Don't forget also - the V-Switch holds 3 tunes (including your original). And when you get a V-Switch, you get to pick 2 tunes (Greg/Simon correct me if I'm wrong). So for $1400, you get 2 x Viezu tunes + your stock tune all on the same unit. So you can swap between stock, and whatever other 2 tunes you picked (whether they be Economy, Performance, Motorsport etc).
Ohh, and plus, lets not forget - with Viezu, you get free lifetime upgrades to the tune. You don't have to pay again each time you modify your car. There is no "Stage 1", "Stage 2", "Stage 3" etc. Just tell them you've added an exhaust & fuel pump (or whatever), and they'll send you a new tune... no extra cost.

That may all be true but a jump from $900 to $1400 is massive.

Are you after Viezus numbers or local owners numbers ?
The latter are apparently being done over the next few weeks for various owners

Yeah it would be nice to see fiqures, 1400 bucks is alot of money for a few 'Wows' and that 'pulls harder' opinions.

One R on the dyno 8am Monday morning-tomorrow. Others as owners can get there.
Viezu HQ charges a fortune for their V switches, and they have no interest in the handheld market, so they are indeed pricing themselves high. That helps cover the fact you get insurance, and like Noel points out, as many retweaks as you want. It's a premium service, now at a premium price on a handheld. A dealer flash for most cars is still around the grand, and this is Viezus preferred method of passing out tunes, straight from the top.
A V switch is now being marketed as an accessory over and above a tune, and for a bargain handheld there are a few companies that can help you out, bluefin, DNA etc etc.
I realize the price jump is massive, and I think the few switches I keep in stock will gather a bit of dust, but such is life.
