i have heard dynojets are way over-rated. idk... but im stock, so why would my clutch be slipping?

my best bet i feel is gonna be a custom tune.

if you get it from a dealer you don't have to send anything back.. and you get it for a cheaper price then going straight to him

maybe NLS should only be used when car is stock, not after its been modded and pumped up. i prefer a simple rev up to 3k and dropping it, much less wear on clutch

Yea but the whole purpose of NLS is not to lose boost! Granted it will be harder on the clutch once a new tune goes on. You can NLS any car but you will lose all your boost, the feature is awesome.

^^^ you guys are idiots. his tune is fine...ive had it on my car for 10k miles NLS all day long. not a problem. did you ever think that the driver caused the blown motor? because if mine pops i know its because i was beating the **** out of it. i wudnt blame a tune lol. these tunes are basic for these cars...unless your going ***** out, in which case i really wudnt blame the tuner haha.

now if a cuple people out of the HUNDREDS, if not thousands of trifecta tuned TCS pop their motors im gunna say trifects sucks right? wrong.

stupid to point fingers.

Because we thought ours were running good too...but they weren't. He liked me, and I still like him he's a good guy but I should have gone a different route to begin with.

Just to prove a point about good ole steve-

you think your tune is running correct right now but in a couple months it probably wont be. thats why people get retunes all the time. my car runs fine, idles perfectly, hits 22psi till redline, and preforms the same as day 1. if theres anything wrong with my tune, it would be miniscule. either way the car is gone soon, so i could care less. Just stating theres 10k on this tune and not a problem.

dont see a reason for people to be bashing basic tunes.

There is nothing like having total control over your tune with HP Tuners, especially if you have someone as knowledgeable as 06black tuning you.

Trifecta tunes though..

The idea of having three power levels available at the touch of a button just makes me feel warm and fuzzy all over.

For instance, one buddy of mine has:

ESC on = completely stock
ESC off, cruise disable = "Trifecta classic"
ESC off, cruise enable = "Pursuit mode"

Thats just too cool to pass up, for me anyway.
