When I purchased the car, the previous owner gave it to me and said it came with the car. I tried to contact trifecta through wot-tuning support, and they haven't replied in over two weeks to my original support ticket. I've had my check engine light come on and it said something about my car is running too lean for a long period of time.

Pretty sure its tuned if u got a cable with it.

Careful. Being lean is not where you want to be.

Any way to contact previous owner still and ask him?

Dubz

Yeah I have previous owner contact information. He told me the vehicle was tuned in the winter time. I was confused though, because there was another guy present when I was first looking at the vehicle that worked at a local performance shop. At one point he mentioned, "It's too bad you're selling this car before we got it tuned." So I don't know if it is tuned or not, but one thing I do know, is that it seems impossible to contact trifecta to see what type of tune was applied to it. This vehicle has a custom intake with a recirculating bov as well. Cat has been removed too. I'm sure all of these things need to be tuned for...but from what I hear, trifecta isn't a company that puts in the effort to tune for these things.

I'm sending an e-mail away to BNR(Bad News racing) to get my trifecta re-tuned after some recent mods. I will tell ya how long it takes to get a response.

I checked out that WOT-Tuning site, damn is it faded for trifecta's main site...Can't get on most forums without being a member either...I do see Vince has logged in within the week though so I guess hope is not lost. But it does seem like he's putting in minimal work in the last 2 years.

I will post back once I get a response e-mail.

Thanks Shanedude, I appreciate it.

In the meantime get us some pictures of your mystery setup. What type of downpipe/intake/bov etc. Also the sensor in the lower charge tubing to find out if it's GMS1 or stock.

Dubz

I think you might be able to find most the information you are requesting in the thread I made a few weeks ago:

I do not believe it has GMS1. Keep in mind I am not very mechanically inclined. The car was like this when I purchased it. The intake system is completely custom from my understanding.

Shanedude

Yeas that is a very custom setup indeed.

I have been back and fourth everyday with BNR and they are getting me a newly revised tune from Trifecta. I will let ya know how long it takes to get it. than data logging starts again. BNR does seem to have the ability to get in touch with Vince still. They are most likely not your previous owners original distributor but I'm sure if you offered to pay a small fee they could help in some way.

Shanedude

Even BNR gets slow responses from Trifecta Vince. Been waiting 4 days now for a revised ECP tune. Hopefully next week.

You make any progress OP finding out what tune you have? Careful running lean.
