How long does it possibly take for trifecta to get back to you on a data log. Its been 2 weeks car running and idling like pure crap. Loss of power. Getting no gas milage at all. what a joke! Its funny some love there tune and some hate it. Starting to wonder if this is all I'm getting. Fuckit, I wnt to force fed racing in las vegas andim getting hp tuned. I will never get trifecta again. I trusted everything that was aid on cobaltss.net and all the good things I've heard. Bull crap

Yeah I emailed trifecta no response back. You know I would really hate to say anything about trifecta bad wise. I guess its just my experiece. Found a local tuner might just get hp tuned.
Im gonna say its because its around the holidays, Vince likes to take time off. But HP tuners is always better Ive even thought about switching but Ive seen no need to for a little more hp, and my car idles and runs fine that I can see and ive been tuned for 20k miles. Vince always treated me good but I also tuned my car over a year ago maybe hes changed idk.

We'll force fed in las vegas don't have the software to tune cobalts. So they said if I buy the hp software they can tune my car. Cobalts are not that popular here. so hopefuly this goes through maybe there will be decent source of tuning for cobalts in las vegas.

i pulled that code like crazy before and after my trifecta tune, i found for my car, if i oiled my air filter i pulled that code, i put a filter that was not pre oiled and code went away. i also added oil catch can to stop blow by from coming in my intake tube. and my car runs a little rough when i first start it, idles fine though and i let it warm up a little and it will do fine.

I too have suffered at the hands of P0171. A month or so after installing my Injen CAI, it popped up. Checked for leaks, tightened bolts, etc, but no luck. I emailed Injen and they played dumb with me. Currently the car will run fine and code free for a day or two, then it'll spring the P0171 code (or P0420 due to my 200 cell cat). I have a code reader in my glove box for just that occasion. No tune as of yet.
There's no way a base tune caused mechanical problems in the engine unless you took the car out and beat the crap out of it on a base file, which they would have advised you not to do.

They told me not to beat on correct. But what is data logging on a base file. That's beating on to get info right there. I was told if I was worried to go back to stock tune and that's what I been running
You cant see the log so how do you know if it was good?
You turn it on and drive the car.
