some hookers don't, I got turned down last night

 

In terms of him being in bfe.. yeah trifecta is the best tune to go with ( BECAUSE HPTUNERS IS NT AROUND). aBOUT 20-25% OF MY CUSTOMERS WERE PREVIOUSLY TRIFECTA and the reason they traded is most hated the fact they would have to wait days apon days for a revision on the tune and they all felt someone elses car i tuned and basically compared the two and said yep.. **** this **** ******James Will you tune me!!!! I mean trifecta is all fine and dandy in the aspect of it being a email type system, but **** man, Do you really want to wait atleast to get your **** running okish. It takes more then one log to finish a car up!!!!

 

Yeah ive been tuned by both and am currently combo tuned with Terminator only because the Trifecta WGDC holds boost better than the HP Tuners one for some reason on my car. Yeah I agree if a reputable tuner is close to you then get it all done in one day, but not everyone has that convience.

 

Yeah i get yuh, but i have tuned many guys and they are all on constant boost and do spikes no dips. Oly issues is one of my guys is running the stock ic and i gave him 24lbs and we did about 2 logs and bam, blew he stock IC HAHAHAH... Hey its all good, I have ton of guys running 24 on stock ic without a issue but hey i guess its a win or lose situation with the gm IC lol!!!!

 

Plastic end-tanks, great thinking GM lol, luckily I have the Treadstone one which has held up well, but I think it is blocking the radiator from air flow cause on long pulls the coolant will sometimes hit 225 degrees.

 

Dude, is this not why you got banned in the first place? Stop knocking supporting vendors and promoting yourself. Either pay the money to be a vendor or STFU!

 

Firrst off Vince is not a supporting vendor ... Second off iM SAYING THE TRUTH!! So STFU!!Oh yeah where am i promoting myself??????? Idiot!!!!!!! I said i travel alot and i could help him hahahaha!!! WOOOOW

i think it seems like trifecta is easier for me its only a tune for now just to make me boost higher, since im not modded and wont be for a bit and theres a Lnf special its only 200 bucks for a tune so i think im just gonna get that. just wondering if anyone has any experience with the selectable tune where you can drive stock tune but then turn traction off and have the tune? it seems like a good idea because my cars stock and really only want the tune for when i wanna eat someone

 

the select a tune is a good inventio, and since you have no hptuners around you then go with trifecta. But get it datalogged and do not let vince take advantage over the email crap... Cal him and make him do his job so your car gets done with a quickly manner!!!!!..

 

as mentioned, a tune, and headpipe are the two single most drastic changes you can make to the car - There is someone here who is tune only, and dynoed something like 307whp & 367wtq

the selectable tune is all about having a "Stock" tune, and hopefully hiding it from the dealer if you go in for warranty work;
but to the best of my knowledge, although no service bulletin has been issued, some dealers are now looking for hidden tunes...often the tune's ID code is pictured off of the techII and emailed to GM to verify that everything is ok...

Trifecta is a great option if you don't want to deal with:

• buying your own copy of HPtuners (aprox $600iirc)
• possibility of a bad tuner

IF you have a local trifecta dealer this saves you on even spotting the deposit in the tuner.
You could always ask Vince since I know three people including myself who are not on his list of dealers...

The third option is using the superchips or what ever that device is... it came out before the stage1 kit, and for a spell was popular here... (this would probably be the cheapest route to go)/

 

My hpt 24psi tune is holding fine with stock cp and intercooler

 

Wow, where do I start on you again?

#1 You're right, Vince isn't a supporting member himself. But there are supporting vendors on here that sell his products. You are potentially taking business away from them.

#2 You're stating you're OPINION. I have never had a problem getting work done with Vince. I have however in the past had GREAT difficulties getting my car worked on by a local tuner. It's a lot easier to send an e-mail then it is to drive and meet someone. As for promoting yourself, I'll let your own quote answer that question. You know, the one where you stated that 20-25% of your customers came from Vince.... That's called promoting.

#3 You've been banned for doing this before, but all of a sudden I'm the idiot? Pull your head out of your ass.

You may be a great tuner, I'll never know. But you are quite a ******* douche bag sometimes.....

 

Yes with just a tune alone you can see an increase of 40+ whp and 50-60+ wtq...

 

stop being d bags.

 

Lmao is all I have to say................. When did I promote my self..... Hmmm... Im so confused.. Anyways if im a douchebag I want to be strawberrys so when someone goes down on the girl I was in I would at least taste good...

 

get a downpipe and charge pipes. otherwise youll probably end up blowing the stock charge pipes apart. like all the guys that come into my dealership because their cars arent boosting...lol

 

you didnt do anything wrong dont worry haha.

 

if i get a selectable tune? which would be better to put it on traction off or compedative mode?

 

cruise control is best for Selectable tune

 

im in the same situation idk if its worth it for me to get a tune

 

Want to buy a K&N SRI? I had it on for about 9 months, worked great, zero issues then started having hesitation/bucking problems. Had nothing to do with the intake but took it off anyways so the dealership couldn't blame it. Still have the issue after 5 visits and 2 cels

 

IF GMSTAGE1 CHECK SENSORS, IF NOT CHECK COMPRESSION AND LEAKAGE TEST if good, check coild packs and injectors, if good check spark plugs, if good, check throttle body, if good check fuel filter, if good, check ecm and connections everywhere!

 

Thanks. My CEL was interminent, MAF and MAP at the same time, my guess is an oily Map sensor but what did those intelligent Techs do? Keep it for 3 days because they said it only happened in the mornings (Wrong), couldn't figure out what was wrong so cleared the codes and gave it back, still not workin 100. They basically told me the same thing as the other 4 times, wait til it breaks.

PS: They never checked either sensor even though I pleaded for them to. Love the car, hate trying to get it fixed

 

Hey Jordster, I've been having some of the same issues as you do lately .. except I only have gm stage 1 kit..

I was thinking it might have something to do with my dejon spring or a dirty maf..

You guys thinking that it could be the stage 1 sensors?..


OO.. and were do you guys see 200$ for a trifecta tune.. I only see 350$..

 

@jpower

Already checked the MAF and it's clean. My boost gauge would read Data Not Available also, the car was bucking really bad when I brought it in and now it's back to being slight hesitation. I believe it's the MAP sensor in the lower charge pipe but seeing as it's under warranty, I'll let the experts who got their certification out of a code reader box figure it out.

I noticed too that my AFR was all over the place, bouncing from 9 back to 16, eventually leveling out at 14-15.
