New LNF owner, trifecta to stock tune
A friend bought an LNF from a car lot earlier this year and has been happy with it. So he wants to tune his with HPtuners but his car has a trifecta tune. How can we bring his car back to stock? He didnt know he had trifecta until we plugged the hpt unit in. Can trifecta send us a stock tune or maybe his original tune?

I messaged them but havent got a reply. Thanks for any help

It seems he does have to get a new PCM. They have not replied to my messages. Had already messaged them before to update a tune on my brother's car and never got back to me.

Thanks guys, now we need to find a PCM. Where can I find one? Any other cars that use the same PCM?

If you have a cable you might be able to flash it back to stock. You will need the EZFlash Utility

Hmm.. I do have the red trifecta cable, but we don't have the tune file. On my brother's car and mine when they were trifecta tuned, you had to pick the file before flashing the tune of back to stock. Not sure if its the same for the lnf

If Trifecta would ever respond to you they should be able to provide you with stock calibration from your VIN number.

I'd have to agree with you there lol. Still haven't got a reply but he is going to buy a new one. Only thing is we have to go to the dealer to get it flashed stock right? Or can we program the key like some Chevy trucks
