Default changing cams and using a SERT

I have a stage 1 on my 96" Road Glide and it was tuned buy my local dealer using a SE race tuner. I'm thinking about changing cams (255?) and not sure about the tune. Can they just tweak what was already done or have to start over? Any idea on cost?

going to need to start over. With the cam change the ignition timing will be differn't, so a full tune is needed. Our shop is about an hour East of Toledo, a full tune from us is $300 plus tax. Not sure what part of Michigan you're in, but I would think prices ahould be somewhat comparable.
