b20 vtec chip

I bought a p28 and it has been chipped by teknotik. I believe its a skunk2 chip for my b16. Car runs great. Now that im doing a b20 vtec can i just send the ecu back to him to get a new chip. DO i need to dyno tune it or do they have a chip...Or does anyone have a b20 vtec chip

i know i have to dyno it, eventually, but cash is a little tight rite now and i dont have 350 an hour to tune the car...I cant believe prices are that expensive for a tune...BUT, i need a few weeks to get the cash, so until then i dont want to drive wit a b16 chip cause it mite be a little lean. I wont boot it around, and ill prolly drive sane for a few weeks until i can get a good tune in...SO, thats why i was wondering if i could just get acheap chip for now

$350/hr?!?!?!?
Damn, where are you getting it tuned?
PM me, i can shed some light on this situation.
Sure, you could just run a b20vtec basemap, or even a program that worked well on another car, but you're best bet is to get it tuned.

350 an hour at tecnotik ....well for the first hour and 250 for the next...Thats what i was quoted..BUt, i paid 175 an hour at tag racefcraft...Now they want 200...an hour...Is that regular or is that high...My mechanic told me its usually 75-100 an hour of dyno and 75-100 an hor for the tuner.....So 150-200 per hour.....So when i got the teknotic quote i thought prices for tuning went up...WHy is that a little high, i know they are a bit pricey but they usuallly have good stuff....
