Default Reflash? Chip? Thoughts?

What are folks' experience with reprogramming the computer or adding a chip. I'd like to have my car dyno tuned and am considering driving the 3-4 hours to L.A. to find a shop with a dyno and the ability to either reflash the computer or add a chip. But my sense is that could be a $500 adventure, and I would like to hear from others who have had good luck doing something like that.
Thanks!

I would agree with your cost estimate. I think the chips run $250/$300. I do note however that the window sticker states that it was already flash programmed by Saleen, so I wonder if it's a chip that could be "reflashed"? Not sure....

Default Flasher or no flasher...

My window sticker (2000) doesn't say anything about programming, so I'm just not sure what Saleen did. I know if you ask the tuners they will say the programming needs help. At $150/hr on the dyno and $300-$500 for chip or reflashing I would say the same thing...
