      Chevrolet Colorado
      GMC Canyon

    In about 20 minutes, you can increase the performance, power, sport factor, and economy for your 2017+ Chevrolet Colorado / 2017+ GMC Canyon.

    • The TRIFECTA Advantage Powertrain Calibration for the MY2017+ Chevrolet Colorado is intended for stock vehicles, and includes a TRIFECTA flash loader
    • The TRIFECTA Advantage+ Powertrain Calibration for the MY2017+ Chevrolet Colorado allows speedometer recalibration for aftermarket wheels and tires (among other certain calibration adjustments), and includes a TRIFECTA flash loader
    • The TRIFECTA Elite Powertrain Calibration with Individualization (Custom Profiling) for the MY2017+ Chevrolet Colorado / GMC Canyon LGZ includes calibration individualization, remote diagnostics, and comprehensive aftermarket hardware software integration support. (Includes a TRIFECTA flash loader)


    Key Features of the TRIFECTA Performance MY2017+ Chevrolet Colorado / GMC Canyon powertrain calibration software reprogramming:

     


    While on the outside, the 2017+ trucks look the same (save for a red V6 on the tailgate), underneath the hood, its a totally new truck. Sporting an application-specific 3.6L V6 of the new HFV6 generation (read more about the differences here: TRIFECTA: We love the Colorado/Canyon. We love the 2017 model even more.) and 8 speed automatic transmission, our engineers had to start from scratch in building the successor to the already best-in-class product for the 2015-2016 Chevrolet Colorado / GMC Canyon.

     

    Dyno-proven gains in power

     

    Using a chassis dynamometer, TRIFECTA has established proven gains in torque and horsepower!

    Telemetry-proven gains in acceleration

     

    Using professional grade industry-standard telemetry equipment, TRIFECTA has also established proven gains of up to .5 seconds in 0-60MPH acceleration times versus the factory calibration through power gains, throttle ramp rates, and shift schedule optimization.

    Driver Selectable Vehicle Modes (also known as “DSVM” or “Shift-on-the-fly”):

     

    The ability to change the driving behavior of a truck has always been of great interest to the truck community. TRIFECTA exclusively offers the ability to change between three driving modes, on the fly. Three profiles offered: Sport, Eco, and Tow/Haul

    • Sport mode offers aggressive pedal response, more progressive downshifts, extended shift points (selected when cruise control system is disarmed)
    • Eco mode offers economy-centric pedal response and shift points (selected when cruise control system is armed)
    • Tow/Haul offers the factory tow/haul mode (selected when tow/haul button is pressed / mode engaged)


    Accelerator Pedal Detent Delete (Sport Mode):

     


    The LGZ-equipped vehicles, along with most other trucks equipped with an 8 speed automatic transmission have a “detent” at the bottom of the accelerator pedal travel. On the factory calibration, the driver must consciously press through this detent in order to achieve maximum acceleration and full downshifting. While in TRIFECTA's SPORT mode, maximum acceleration and full downshifting can be achieved without passing the detent. This allows for a level of throttle modulation during sporty driving maneuvers not possible on the factory calibration.

     

    TRIFECTA Performance Active Fuel Management (PAFM) (Advantage+ or Elite package)

     

    The LGZ offers V6/V4 mode. GM has succeeded in making V6/V4 transitions (AFM, or Active Fuel Management as GM calls it) extremely smooth, such that in most cases they can't be noticed. However, some customers may have exhaust or other modifications that cause the truck to produce an undesirable exhaust note while in V4 mode. TRIFECTA exclusively offers three options with regard to adjusting AFM parameters with this product:

    • AFM available/active in all drive modes (default)
    • AFM disabled in Sport mode
    • AFM disabled entirely


    Advantage+ and Elite customers may request AFM behavior changes when ordering their product.

     


    Optimum shifting improvements for your transmission – without “unlocking” the TCM

     

    The LGZ equipped vehicles come mated to an 8 speed automatic transmission (8L45). A TRIFECTA exclusive-feature allows recalibration of the transmission's behaviors WITHOUT requiring an expensive, and inconvenient “unlocking” service.
