Default Tune cost?

Ok, so I'm setting up my winter budget and trying to sort out what everything is going to cost me and which route I'm going to go. I know what it would cost to buy tuning software to do it myself and all the pitfalls/benefits that can come along with that so no need to debate there.

What I'd like to know is what is the average cost to just get a tune done? Or, how does it break up moneywise? Does it go by how many hours or just a flat rate?
Setting up a 6.0, most likely staying all stock beyond a cam and as of right now I'm leaning towards an 83mm bw s400 turbo with a 1.1 ar, stock ls1 car intake, and 60lb injectors.
Any idea on how much/how long?
My biggest issue with taking it there however is that I'm also doing a complete suspension retrofit of c5 stuff into my first gen and the car will have zero street time. I'm sure I'll need something done though before I can even putt around to work out the bugs. That and I'd much rather be the one to make the maiden voyage after all the work it's going to involve.
I think that about covers everything I've had rattling around in my head so, let's talk.
