Ive been looking at getting a Trifecta tune, pretty much forever.

My question:
Ive got an 05 LT with basically just a K&N sri

If I purchased the tune now, what could I expect?
Better Gas mileage?
More HP
Better Acceleration
Remove rev limiter?

I will be doing the 2.4l manifold swap, header, dp, and full cat back.

Would I have to buy the tune again if I wanted to tune specifically with those mods? Or is there some sort of discount/ upgrade fee I could pay?


I know its best to wait, but I honestly dont know when I'll have all the other parts I want. I'd rather get the tune, enjoy mediocre gains as well as decent driving features, until I get my mods.

there is an upgrade fee which is substantially cheaper then the original tune.. however generally we recommend just doing it all in one shot as you'll see the best gains from it then and notice it the most..

if you'd like to get a tune just shoot me a pm and we'll get you hookd up / talk about everything more

look at Rissa's car. we went to the dyno day on the 18th (April). all she had was a downpipe and a tune and she put out big numbers. the tune works great even on a stock TC. here is a link to the site so you can see. the pics and what not start in the 20's

I was surprised and a nice 12.8 afr. He retuned it since he did it the first time since there was no dyno at that shop and it feels a lot more solid now.
