My first Mod...

[PamPurrs]

I have a 2017 Sonic LT with 1.4 turbo and auto tranny. I've had it for six days and 250 miles. I like it, but wish it had more pep....

I'm considering the Trifecta Tune, but I'm perplexed as to what exactly it is.

Is it similar to the Power Commander that I've installed on my bikes? Does it manage fuel and timing? Is it hardward that needs to be installed (like the Power Commander), or is it just software? Is it similar to a DynoTune?

Also, what's the difference between the Advantage tune and the Elite tune?

Sorry for all the questions, but I need to know what I'm buying and there's not a whole lot of information on their site.

Thanks,

Pam

My guess is, it's a Dynatune map. However, I would need some method to connect to my laptop to load it onto the Sonic's ECM.

I'll be interested to see the responses.

Hey Pam, it's a tune file they'll email to you. You need the cable they sell to upload the tune to your car.

Thanks! That's kind of what I figured. Most likely they do a Dynatune on a Sonic and then sell the map. Probably much cheaper than me going to a Dyna tuner and getting it done.

Is the cable included with the price? I don't see any mention on their site of having to pay extra for the cable.

I got my tune 3 years ago & had to buy the cable as an extra, not sure what they're doing now.
