So how much of a difference will I feel from a HP tune over my 22-23PSI Trifecta tune. Is HP tuning really that much of a difference or are we only talking like barely quicker?

The peak numbers are similar between the tunes on the cars but I feel the HP Tune powerbands are a lil better.

So 200 dollars worth having that better powerband? The only reason I went with Trifecta in the beginning is I was a little iffy with the warranty. Now that Vince teamed up with you I can hide the HP tune.

My personal opinion is yes. Take Cmillers car for a perfect example. He ran a best of 12.4 @ 1xx (I honestly forget the trap speed!), on the same setup with just changing to my tune he got down to a 12.14 @ 1xx. His most recent run was 12.16 @ 116 and that is on slicks LOL

Edit: When I ran Ryan's (glhs) TF tuned balt I was on 22psi and he had a 24psi tune on his car. While it was neck and neck (and honestly some good racing!) you could see how much longer I could stay in the same gear making power! On 24psi my car is a bit quicker still! Im supposed to be meeting up with him again, Im hoping we can get some runs in vs each other again

More traction usually = less trap speed. So it's pretty impressive IMO to trap that high! lol

I trapped in at 116 on the k04 although being almost a second slower than cmiller (stock conti's for the SUCK)... and 122 on the 2871r... if you manage the dals well enough you can get the car to hold boost a bit better and drag the powerband out some.

I got picked on by a trifecta tuned 2.2 today.... It did not end well for him even with me barely going over 75% throttle

He is running the .045 pill mod, 24-25psi. I tuned the car, no TF stuff at all on it currently.

I used to be. With Nicks tunes I have picked up a whole 1-2mph in the 1/8th and trapped the same as before untill I got an intake, now with that I have been consistant 114-116 in the 1/4 and 92-95 in the 1/8th. I asked the track if the lights could be off, and they said that Norwalk is mandated to be within a certain NHRA spec so there not off he said. That was my first thought when I seen the slip lol.

I would def like to try out the Speed Density tune and ditch this shitty MAF..

Really depends on the track too. A person with the same tune that was on my car at a better track was hitting 12's no problem, I can't seem to break thru 13's on street tires at my track. My track is just awful tho LOL!
