Hey guys, I want to put a tune on my cobaltss tc and I am looking for a for a trifecta or hp tuner which one is the best ? And what im really gain ? hp, torque, ?

thank you

 

You need to add your mods and its more personal preference than anything. Use the search bar as there is about a million of these threads.

 

hp though

 

Tons of threads discussing this but I believe it simply comes down to what you want to do with the car. Hp can give you some fantastic numbers but you will be sacrificing the "safety" for lack of a better word of your engine/trans. Trifecta on the other hand can give you a good/safe tune that won't max out power but would be an option for a daily driver. Trifecta can also do the two different tunes options toggled by either your cruise button or traction button (one being an efficiency tune and the other with more power). That being said Hp can give you a safe tune that wont blow your engine as well.

 

HP Tune, hands down. vince/trifecta simply isn't responsive enough. I literally waited weeks and weeks to even get one tune revision from him, with James (popular tuner from this site) doing my HP tune the first thing he did was give me his cell phone and friend me on FB and responds in minutes or hours not weeks or months.

I DD my car and switching to HP tune (which can be either aggressive or as conservative as you want) has made it faster and easier to drive.

and as others have said we dont know your mods or goals so no clue on power.

 

You don't have to lie to push HP tuners ok?

Both have ups and downs, do some research OP there are 10000000 threads in this forum about it, all include pissing matches

 

its simply a personal opinion (actually if i had dyno of before and after i would put money on it being provable) that you nor anyone else can refute.. many others stand with me on that opinion so regardless your accusation is foolhardy.

 

More power sure, nothing that can't be achieved by a aggressive trifecta tune at the same time, saying the car is easier to drive is a matter of opinion

 

thank you guys I will check correctly both tune and make a choice :P I don't want to race or whatever... my car is only a daily driver :P

 

Yes. Use this guy who is banned for ripping people off and speaks like a pissed off midget in the 3rd grade who just learned a bunch of cuss words.

 

I must have missed when he got banned?

 

in!
i vote GMS1 tuned by earl at chevy

 

I am currently using David (Terminator2) for tuning on my car. Hptuners

I've used trifecta in the past and Vince just seems to get very busy. I did trifecta dealing for a little while and some cars he would take time on.. others I've just loaded basic maps and was told they were great... I could just be biased but I think every car needs SOME adjustment.

As far as James... when people agree with him all is good, seems like a smart guy. When an argument arises he does do this. Exact reason why I didn't contact him to do the tune on my car.

So, find a good tuner, hp tuners all the way! If not Vince has done wonders for god knows how many of the cars on here. Good luck!

 

Search Terminator2. He is very reliable.

 

I'm happy with my Trifecta. Trifecta is cheaper too.

 

And I love the on/off feature.

 

PM Terminator2, he is the best tuner for LNFs in my opinion.

 

Its a matter of preference.....I like hptuners, I can see the actual logs on my car. I also learned whats going on as my tuner explain stuff to me as I got tune. So just pick your poison

 

You can see the logs of Trifecta tunes too if you use your own logging software, they aren't locked.


Trifecta is a great way to go, we've worked with Vince on hundreds of LNFs now and have never had a single problem with one.
