Official trifecta tune group buy

[robinsonmac]

My 1.8 after tune feels so much nicer. It pulls harder and is smoother as it revs higher. It has got rid of the low rpm handicap. No more sudden power rush at 3K rpm, a lot more linear. I wonder what the graph looks like compared to stock. What mod should be next?

Custom parallel twin-turbo on top of a supercharger.

The supercharger to avoid low RPM turbo lag. ;D

Well with a 1.8 you only have 2 choices, an Injen SRI or cat back exhaust. Personally I'd go with the Injen due to price.

that would be a dream setup. the 1.4 is my first experience with forced induction and now i'm hooked. i just want boost, more boost, more boost all the time.

seriously though, a twin turbo with more flow on top would be gravy.

 

[emorejnayr]

Well the top speed limiter is gone but I'm not sure if the no lift shift was put on my tune

 

[robinsonmac]

Are either of those really worth it? How much more can be wrung out of the 1.8?

 

[JimmyBuckets]

Not much...I'm sure people will get all up in arms again.

What's the order of operations with the tune?
inb4 PEMDAS
If I am getting a cat- back plus hi-flow 2nd cat, should I wait until it's installed to get the tune? Or can I easily upgrade the tune later to accommodate the better flowing exhaust?

Tune is easily updated for free for minor mods such as intake and exhaust. Their is a charge for major mods.

 

[robinsonmac]

That's what I figured. Not going to chase 2-3 HP, or 5 Ft-lbs of torque at $100 per. Guess I'll wait on that part & upgrade the sounds next.

 

[Deliboy]

Well got my Sonic back and tuning it right now!

Installed my shifter bushings and Trifecta tune today. The bushings took longer than the tune, but both were a piece of cake. Wow, what a difference. Created a log to send back for fine tuning, but I am satisfied with the tune for now. Next is cold air intake....

So seeing as how at the end while tryin to tune the TCM it failed does that mean it also failed to tune the ECM and I should retune just the ECM?

ECM should be good.

Take it for a drive. When you read on this board you can feel the difference, the reports are not misleading. If the ECM flash took, then you can flash just the TCM and if not you should be able to do both, just make sure the computer being used is fully charged before you start.

Yeah basically GM uses whatever trans they have laying around lol, and we sort of guess at which one you have. Sometimes we guess wrong. If you have the G37 error, please perform a "Read TCM" using EZFlash and send the file you make to me. (customersupport@badnewsracing.net)

 

[Deliboy]

Yea I'm not feeling a difference so I think when it went to flash the TCM after finishing the ECM is may have cancelled the whole thing. Gonna go flash just the ECM until I get my new TCM tune.

Make sure you read your TCM and get that file to Jerry. When you do this it will look just like it's writing to your TCM but it is actually copying the info so that Jerry can send the TCM tuning file to Vince for modifiaction for you transmission.
