I am very happy with the power. Dollar for dollar, it does not get better then an LSJ w/ TVS and E85.

Its just time for me to move on. Cars have come a long way in the last few years. My new car will have:

Push to start
Leather Seats
7" Touch Screen Driver information Center
Remote Start
E-Z Key Passive Entry System
336w 9 Speaker 5.1 Sound system
Blue Tooth Connectivity
Universal Home Remote
Dual Climate Control
HID Projector Headlights
etc

Its easy to ignore all those cool feature when you can't get them with the LSJ. But when you experience them for the first time...

Ok fellow tvs brethren I have a question. I have the trifectia tune and I had the ls4TB on and it sounded like ****. Trifectia dealer told me that the TB(throttle body) was the problem. So my question is, is hp tune better than trifectia? I've been watching videos on other tvs lsj cars and my car feels like it lost power after my tvs install.

My car felt the same way when I first installed the TVS. You need to raise your octane, lower your pulley and get a little better tune.

Could one be rented at an auto parts store? I don't have the extra money or time to send it in. So I will be doing the fix myself during a weekend.
