$250 for trifecta. they tuned me really freaken rich. i blow a good ammount of black smoke out at wot. i suggest ottp if you're supercharged. the turbo guys have nothing but good to say about trifecta however and the numbers they're running support that.

Unless its the GM Stage 3 tune, the GM fuel tables are crap.

Wow I'm surprised no one has screamed "SEARCH" yet that's usually what happens with these threads. Anyway a custom tune is always better than a GM Stage kit, but they definitely work too

I run Trifecta for my Ion and it opened it up a ton. I am a bit rich, but better rich than lean imo. You can contact Vince at trifectaperformance.com. he can either hook you up through the mail, or you can use your region's page to ask for a local Trifecta dealer so you can have a tuner to go back to for issues (recommended).

For the record, the search feature on this site is terrible. I can NEVER find what I'm looking for, whether I'm searching through topics, phrases, or how-to's.

Depends if you want to keep warranty or not. They say Trifecta switchable is "hidden" but you never know. I have GMS1 and am very happy with it. Trifecta folks report it to have a lot of performance for the buck. Just remember its more power which means more stress on other parts (ie clutch)
