    I am extremely satisfied with this tune and this company. My 2017 Sierra 6.2 Denali now feels how it should've came from the factory. The notorious problematic 8 speed has been r…

    Best decision and upgrade I've made on my Chevy Colorado!!! The added power is definitely noticable. It's not a throw you in your seat kind of upgrade, but the shifting points ar…

    Exceeded my expectations. I was leery at first mostly because I work in IT and I was afraid of bricking my engine but I'm so so so glad I did this. I expected slight gains in my …

    When I first installed the tune I noticed the throttle response right away, after driving with it on it took me a while to get used to. I’ve had the car for 3 years now and I’m v…

    I bought an off lease 2016 ATS 2.0t two months ago, the only thing I didn't like about it was the Stop/Start feature which caused misery in traffic (because I would forget to turn…

    Big difference! Especially in throttle response. Made the little Trax a lot more fun to drive. Averaged about 1-2 mpg on economy mode on long distances. Wish there were more toys f…

    I am very happy with my new tune. It definitely improved the throttle response and you can feel the car pulls harder. Also the transmission shifts much better. No more getting lo…

    TRIFECTA: Baseline dyno testing of the 2016 Chevrolet Cruze RS 1.4 Turbo (RPO LE2)

      TRIFECTA: Baseline dyno testing of the 2016 Chevrolet Cruze RS 1.4 Turbo (RPO: LE2)

       

      One of the first steps of developing a TRIFECTA calibration is to collect extensive data with the factory vehicle, on the factory calibration (tune). One of the more exciting aspects of this is measuring peak horsepower and torque with a dyno. This is a previous test session of our vehicle at a dyno located near sea level. For purposes of reporting data, we generally use uncorrected dyno numbers with turbocharged cars, since the nature of the turbocharger itself allows the vehicle to compensate for altitude. Uncorrected numbers give a more realistic view of what the vehicle is actually doing, and is capable of.

    This automatic transmission development vehicle put down a peak of 125.18 horsepower (HP) and 133.63 lb-ft of torque (TQ) at the wheels (uncorrected) using a dyno-jet chassis dyno. Given drivetrain losses, this is generally in-line with the manufacturer's rated power of 153HP and 177TQ at the crankshaft, particuarly comparing to what a first generation Cruze with an automatic transmission will put down as well.

     

    After our engineers collect all of the data from the stock vehicle, the fun part begins - modifying the calibration to find the potential power gains! As we've discussed previously, the LE2 engine represents part of the future for GM, and their small gasoline engines! Stay tuned for more development and progress as we continue developing for the 2016+ Chevrolet Cruze 1.4 Turbo (RPO: LE2)!
