If you think Subaru tuning is expensive you should look at what the GTR, Porsche, and other Euro guys are paying for tunes. You'd change your mind real fast about what's expensive  |
I'm not comparing what platforms' products cost the most. I'm talking about what is actually happening. You're writing a few different bytes to the ECU no matter what kind of car you drive, yet car x costs hundreds more than car y.
When I bought spark plug wires for my 944 I couldn't find a set for less than $125. That's $25 each for 4 spark plug wires plus distributor wire. Not even OEM, just replacement. You can get a set of plug wires for a ford V8 for $25. Same materials, same quality, trivially different hoods for the spark plugs. It is unequivocally a ripoff.
The tuning options for our cars and for DSMs and Hondas are functionally equivalent. It's the same deal. We're just bigger suckers.
