All while he may not beat many cars in a race, he can now literally **** on them.

Went through this decision recently myself. I don't know the first thing about tuning, and don't want to pretend like I'm interested. I bought the car knowing I wanted to be fully bolted/tuned and satisfied. Purchased all my bolt ons, and once its all in I'll be going Trifecta for the ease. I understand there is a wait, but I get a rather conservative tune(what I'm looking for), by a guy who has tuned a hell of a lot of LNF's. Maybe someday I'll go BT. Doubt it, as I have other projects, but even if, one re-tune plus initial tune cost is still less then the $500 for HPT. Nothing against HPT, nor claiming Trifecta is better, but it certainly is more streamlined.
