2008 Pontiac G8 3.6 LY7 227.11 +4.00 +1.00 Dyno Sheet
Mods: Yep, that's a V6! You're looking at what we believe to be the first aftermarket-tuned Pontiac G8 with the 3.6L LY7 engine. There wasn't much to be found in the tune for gains, but we proved the ability to adjust air to fuel mixtures, timing, and cam phasing adjustments (not actual picture).

2006 Pontiac Solstice 2.4 LE5 155.77 +4.00 +2.00 Dyno Sheet
Mods: A hot little roadster - this car had decent gains over stock, and was also compared to the mail order tune it had in it when we got it (not actual picture). Peak numbers didn't change a whole lot, but below the curve, torque gain was almost 20 lb-ft at the wheels!

2011 Chevrolet Cruze 1.4L Turbo 152.60 +36.00 +54.00 Dyno Sheet
Mods: The Cruze is replacing the Cobalt as Chevrolet's compact car starting in 2011. While there is no super sport version for 2011, the premium engine is a turbocharged 1.4L 4 cylinder. By fine-tuning the turbocharger and adjusting the factory tune, we were able to gain 31% horsepower and 38% torque!

2008 Chevrolet Corvette (C6) 376 LS3 383.04 +10.40 +19.04 Dyno Sheet
Mods: Vince at Trifecta purchased this flashy red LS3 Corvette in early September, 2008. Thanks to the "employee pricing for everyone" incentive, he was able to purchase this car far below sticker price. Now his friends call him Prince ("Little Red Corvette, baby you're much too fast!") ;-) The car only had 1000 miles on it when it was put on the dyno, check back for updated results as we plan to put it on the dyno again and see where the power is at.

2006 Chevrolet Cobalt 2.2 L61 154.17 +10.01 +4.26 Dyno Sheet
Mods: You are looking at the first 2005+ L61 (2.2L) ECOTEC equipped vehicle EVER to get custom tuning on it. The owner of this car first approached us in November, 2007 and told us at the time that none of the "big" tuning software companies supported the ECM found in the 2005+ L61 vehicles. In early 2008, we worked with the owner of the car to test the tuning capabilities and found we were able to dramatically improve power with our tune. To date, we are still the only company able to offer tuning on the 2005-2006 L61 vehicles.

2006 Chevrolet Cobalt SS/SC 2.0 LSJ 321.35 +92.73 +62.63 Dyno Sheet
Mods: The owner of this car took the supercharger off and put a BIG turbo on it. We saw up to 24psi with it! This car made an impressive 320+ WHP, which is absolutely amazing for a 2.0L 4 cylinder engine. Our "pre-tune" was so good, we had a marginal gain once we put the car on the dyno, so we'll show the gain versus a stock Cobalt SS/SC.

1999 Chevrolet Camaro SS 347 LS1 565.57 +38.00 +27.00 Dyno Sheet
Mods: Look familiar? Same car, but the owner brought it back for a complete dyno tune. Wow, did it put down some impressive numbers. This car currently holds the record for most amount of power we've tuned out of a 347 CID LS1. The car might have broken 600 WHP if the fuel system hadn't started giving out around 5000 RPM.

1984 Chevrolet El Camino 350 LT1 237.00 +13.00 +60.00 No sheet
Mods: This El Camino has an LT1 in it from a Chevrolet Caprice. The swap job is top notch and the LT1 looks right at home in the engine bay. The owner of it was kind enough to send us dyno run results, before and after our custom programming. It picked up an amazing amount of torque!

1955 Chevrolet Station Wagon 350 LT1 0.00 +0.00 +0.00 No sheet
Mods: We should start advertising ourselves as the custom-programming-for-conversion experts! Here's another LT1 transplant project where we were called in. The car ran really well, but there were problems with the shift profile, and we needed to recalibrate the speedometer to fix it. We liked the car so much we asked if we could share it with you!

1999 Chevrolet Camaro SS 347 LS1 0.00 +0.00 +0.00 No sheet
Mods: We did a road tune on this car in sunny Eastern Washington. This 6speed car has all the goodies: blower cam, 60# injectors, FAST intake, Hooker headers, custom exhaust, modified heads, 4.11 gears, street slicks, and, of course a blower. This car made a ridiculous amount of power by way of the seat-of-the-pants dyno, and we will have chassis dyno numbers on it soon!

2007 Chevrolet Trailblazer SS 364 LS2 0.00 +0.00 +0.00 No sheet
Mods: We did a road tune on this Trailblazer SS, and wow, what a difference it made. GM definitely gave us room to improve the tune on this one! Throttle response is improved, wide open throttle performs more like it should, and the customer even said his fuel economy was improved! We're going to go to the dyno with this one after the owner makes a few more mods!

2006 Cadillac CTS-V 364 LS2 364.78 +41.19 +22.45 Dyno Sheet
Mods: Some make more power with tuning, some make a LOT more power with tuning! This sharp looking CTS-V made an extra 41HP at the wheels. The owner has installed a magnaflow exhaust system, cold air intake, and B&M shifter. Besides the impressive dyno sheet, he said not only did our tuning fix the SYSTEM TOO LEAN code he was experiencing but also smoothed out the car's character in general!

Mods: What can we say other then WOW? This car has a Magnuson-supercharged, punched, and stroked 6.0L truck (iron) block. It also has a well-matched cam and heads. This car came to us tuned by another local company, which, quite frankly, shouldn't be in the tuning business according to our gains.

1998 GMC Sierra 350 L31 0.00 +0.00 +0.00 No sheet
Mods: This was a fun project. This truck has a whipple supercharger installed. We didn't dyno-tune it, rather, we did a ride-a-long tune. When we first got our hands on it, it had a lot of problems with spark knock (typical here in the Seattle area). We adjusted the tune and dramatically improved the way the truck drove. The customer said they are going to call us back later after they get a water-methanol injection kit installed on it!
