I work 7am to 7pm and when I ordered mine and it told me to check the box if I wanted it to be signed for and I didnt check the box, which meant leave the damn thing at my door.

sounds like that postal company blows. sue those *******.
so they were supposed to leave it but they didn't? one of the workers prolly stole it j/k. that'd suck... i never use USPS. for that reason... they weren't supposed to leave a car title to a car of my dads at the house, well his g/f house, it was supposed to be sign and release but they left it at the door and when she got home it was gone... she found out when she called them saying they left it. like wtf... and it was supposed to be fed-x not usps

Yeah I dont know what kind of shipping Trifecta or CIA uses, I take it USPS. Anyways, I'll probably say something to them about it Tuesday, but I doubt it will do any good.

But that is not Trifecta's fault that would be USPS, or sorry to say yours i understand it sucks you didn't get your tune yesterday, but if you weren't home then that sucks, but you will get it soon enough

The traction issue's are unbearable at the track. I don't care how good a driver you are, with 21psi in 1st you cant even go 1/2 throttle with out it blowing the tires loose. A local guy and I are working with Vince to get the kinks worked out for track use so it not so horrible.

They are switching to USPS because they're cheaper and they deliver on saturdays. In my case that was perfect because I got mine on saturday instead of monday. Haven't started my car yet, but I've heard a lot of great things. If you have a wideband he can do an even better tune.

Yeah I know that it's not Trifecta's fault, I'm not blaming them, I'm just stating I have to wait. And I'm gonna say something to USPS when I go there on Tuesday.

I don't want to go with an 18" slick with its small sidewall, I rather go with a 17" drag radial-Nitto 245/45-17. To me I think the results will be better that way, but we live and learn don't we.

Do you actually see 21 psi in first because I almost never see more than 15 and I have no boost limit in any gear. Mine either spins soo hard that it redlines almost instantly and sees like 10 psi or it actaully hooks up some and I see 15psi. There is just not enough load in 1st for me to acheive full boost.

I thought yesterday that my car was gonna be limited, wrong answer, I seen 20-21psi in 1st.

A thought all their tunes were boost limited in first. You can actually get enough grip in first to see 21? That is suprising like I said normally 10-15 is all I see too much wheel spin so not enough load for full boost. Maybe I need to pull a little timing and richen my mixture a little, but I don think I want full boost in 1st anyway spins enough already.

I know I seen over 20 yesterday in 1st. Like I said I'm gonna try and head out later on today and I'll see what I can come up with. Do you know if Trifecta's tune extends the rev limiter in 1st or 2nd gear, or any gear?

I do not think so the only tuner that does that is the PPC it is completely unnecessary though becasue the injectors run out of injection window time above 6300 or so depending on how rich the tune is. So you will make very little power up there anyway. It is better to shift these cars at 6000 rpms and let the huge midrange power do its thing.

That is about where I shift anyways, I just wouldnt mind having the leave way in case I forget to shift or I happen to shift late. But it's all good I dont have to have the limiter raised.

I did see full boost in 1st but have since lowered it, but now its one extreme to the other. Now I don't have enough boost in first, but that will soon be worked out. As far as the increase to 7krpm I had him do it even though I normally shift at 6000-6300rpm, so I never take the chance of bouncing off the rev limiter.
