Trifecta tune and MPG

I understand that someone with a great tune an intake and a dp can make some serious horse and torque on the LNF, but what does that do to MPGs for a daily driver? I would love to have the extra power but just curious what would happen to the MPG.

Anyone with a trifecta tune have any imput? If anyone does trifecta tuning can they tell me about how much hp and lbft someone could expect with a SRI and DP on a conservative tune? I understad that you can also get a big range of power depending on the tune.

Sorry if this doesnt make sense or if Im just beating a dead horse, just bored at work and wondering

It stays the same and maybe even a bit better as long as you are not constantly in boost. If you keep jumping on it then its going to go down considerably.

I don't know, I've been WOT almost every chance I get. I just got my tune and I'm loving it.

This is why you get the switchable tune. You basically stay in stock tune until you need the extra power and hit the trac button and you're in tuned mode with 50+ extra hp and 75+lbs-ft of torque.

So just encase someone can tell me, what kind of hp and lbft would someone expect from a trifecta tune, DP, and K&N SRI?

it really all depends but you should be in the 300s for sure but the dyno makes all the difference

I was looking up in MI and also just considering the mail order tune until I could bother to get it dialed in.
