When we say, 'Got my deisel tuned', what exactly should we expect to be done, or what does get done to the engine to 'tune it?'

When I put
mine in for the 100,000k service and tune up,
Injectors checked and replace/cleaned.
pump timing checked to stock setting.
glow plugs and glow circuit checked for operation.
Basic tune up, about $200.00 plus what needs replacing.
Now if I out in in to be tuned on a dyno.
New filters - air and fuel, they will insist on them to get everything right.
New injectors.
EGT hooked up and pump timing played with on the dyno to get the best performance.
You need to say if you are looking for economy or power , or a compromise.
Usually costs $600 to $800 depending on what parts need replacing like injectors.
I do the filters myself before it goes in.
