Yep. That tune is way too rich. 12.9-12.5 is the best A/F range for good power while still being very safe on a DI motor. 11.6-11.8 is what you would command on a port injected turbo or supercharged car not a DI one. DI runs a full point leaner than normal because of its combustion efficiency and the slight cooling effect it has.

I called vince and he said it was normal. He said that he was the only person to truly unlock the capabilities of the TC. He said that all the other tuners are stupid and their tunes haven't had as good as numbers as he has had. I trust vince because after all he has tuned more cars then any of the other tuners. He has been doing it for 11 years.

Ohhhhh boy here it comes. But like i said it is probably because of the intake, all the cases with people having problems it was because of the intake, just put the stock one back in and you will see the numbers come back in. Are you enjoying more power?

Since direct injection has been around 11 years, as well as the TC.

Ok let me say this the people who have been having issues have the Hahn intake then removed it and boy wouldn't you know it the problems went away. There is one other that possibly has a bad cat, but geee no one else huh, i have had this the longest and not one issue. so let see i believe there have been roughly 75 trifecta LNF tunes and not one true problem. This is the last i am going to comment because people can't seem to read or understand anything i am saying. I thought i would try and help with the matter but people just want to bash

BS. The tune in my car with the stock cam tables will own any Trifecta tune. TOO MUCH FUEL EQUALS NO HP. That tune is too rich and you are missing out on 20 whp or so being that rich and your gas mileage is probably crap too. . I hope those were not his exact words to you because all I hear him do is blame the bolton parts and the dyno for causing theses issues. Bottom line is that canned tunes suck period.

Me too. If that is what he did indeed say that makes him look like an ignorant ass. If those are the words of the poster than that makes him an ignorant ass. Either way FAIL
