Trifecta tune

If anyone is looking to get a Trifecta tune, I know a guy that will be in Edmonton from saturday till tuesday doing the tune. Let me know if you want one done and I can set you up with his contact information. He's charging $275 plus tax and requires $150 deposit to order the tune that you want.

Very nice!, looks like mine



how much? anything done to it? future plans? Check these 2 forums, im on both with the same user name as here

srtconnection.com

srtforum.com


On srtforum, if you have any questions about parts or whatever, talk to tony from jtsvp, he is a good guy. And if you are looking at getting tuned talked to torrie. On the site its unoffical but there is 3 septrate groups. N/A, Supercharged and Turbocharged...theres a friendly battle between NA and supercharged guys..lol

Anybody going to the all-day long FINAL street legals this weekend? They're on both Saturday and Sunday, gates open @9am, racing begins @11am, probably until dusk/dark. I'll be going mid-late Saturday afternoon 3-4ish. I text msg'd a few guys today; looks like Jody might go on Sunday, but others have problems or work or whatever preventing them from going. Anybody else going to show?

sure does... I got 11 runs in yeasterday 13.74 was my best time but most were 13.8-13.9. My tune for some reason doesnt let me use my no lift shift tho so I think thats what is killing my time... it just boggs the car down and it threw a check engine light last night. so i guess that means no NLS for now.

For sure, when I was stock I said I'd be happy to break the 13's but now I wanna beat 13.5 lol I changed the oil today and now I'm down to 13.76 now getting close lol. I think maybe next year I'll do water meth injection and intercooler. But I would say I'm pretty content in the 13's.

PS
track is dead today it's like 15-25 min wait today

bah, shush you all, i want to race so bad..lol. Just remember hillbilly, if u do meth injection you need to re-tune. Once re-tuned you will defently be lower then 13.5. Do you know how much timing is in your tune now? I'm not sure if the SS/TC are quite the same but i was able to put my balt to 25* timing with no lock and IAT2 at 149* after 3 pulls. So meth is a good thing.
