Stock tune reflash

How much would the dealership charge to reflash the car to stock? Or is it cheaper to have Trifecta retune it for a stock vehicle with the all the perks like no governor. My brother might be buying the car and really isn't a mod type of person.

I'm looking at upgrading to an SS in the next 3 months and need to demod the entire car.

Dealer will probably charge an arm and a leg, whereas Trifecta may just charge you for an "update" which should be significantly less than buying a whole new tune.

Yeah I mean really Vince should have a stock tune laying around. Might even find a local "dealer" to make it even cheaper.

It took about 10-15 minutes to upload my TIS updates to my ecu and then 5 minutes to recalibrate my clutch pedal or something (I dunno why.) I'm assuming that's all it would take to recalibrate back to stock settings. I wouldn't imagine it costing more that $50-$60 at the dealership... In fact, my dealership didn't even charge me...

Update, brother will not be buying the car, the car is now up for sale.

What should I be asking for this car?

Bolted
Tuned
Tinted
Full sound system with sub and amp

Only flaw is that i need to get new hub caps and it has a $600 dent.

I'm thinking $5500 to $6k
