you effed up by getting gms1 first. with the switchable tune they can give you a gms1 clone as your base tune and the actual trifecta as the other.........helluva lot cheaper (i did it this way)

gms1 is ok but a real tune is sooo much better

Didnt say f*** trifecta or fu** anything all i did was ask a simple question which would mean. Did he or did he not. So my question still stands, reason why i ask is its up to the customer of trifecta to keep up with trifecta....

Calm down, I'm just saying that there is barely a Trifecta thread mentioned where you're not telling someone they should have gotten HPT instead. Some of us just don't have the knowledge, money, or the desire to learn to tune our own cars, okay?

Bro i wasnt making a mean comment i was actually laughing when i seen ure post. Cuz i do feel trifecta is a good software tuning source but i do feel its not the best. Its just how i feel...... Trifecta has came out with a lot of **** while hptuners just stopped but theres now more parmeters that help us tuners out... Congrarts op..

I'm just saying that 90% of the readers of this site are happy with the Trifecta tune and will be for years because squeezing every little bit of horsepower isn't the main goal for the laymans. They just want their car to be exciting to drive. Vince datalogs until he feels the tune is safe. There's no confusing HPT garbage, this layer tune, that layer tune, that base file.....blah blah blah. I don't possess the IQ or patience for that stuff. I just want to get in my car, start it, and have some fun.

I am being retuned soon, and am gonna try and get ALL the power i can out of it, with the stock clutch.

So im sure A LOT of time will be spent logging.

Currently at 21 psi and 15* of timing.

I sent my tuner to. Hawaii lol. They logged it yes while i was on the phone with them. They send me the log and yadda yadda yadda. Hptuner garbage lmao.. I tune to my customers needs and wants and have tuned previous trifecta customers and they all say there much happier with my tunes....... When i datalogged someof these cars they were throwing lean codes and more because trims were off bad and i was there when he was datalogging and getting thr revisions from trifecta so i can see what the whole deal was. So trifecta is good but has flaws as does hptuners. But you know what hotuners has came up with alot of more parmeters so yaY

Andrew have ure tuner get u 23lbs youll love the tq

I'm the guy that tuned it. Yes we logged it. Vince said it looked good. He bought it with the GMS1 already on the car so he didn't waste any money on it. It was my first time riding in an ss/tc and it definitely pulled harder with the trifecta tune than the gms1!!!
