    TRIFECTA presents: 2018--Present Buick Regal Sportback / Avenir / TourX Performance Calibration!

      We've been fans of the Buick Regal ever since the days of the Grand National.  We were thrilled when, later, it was reintroduced in 2011 as a performance-oriented family sedan - it was on this platform that we established ourselves as the premier tuner for the Regal!  It is an honor to continue that legacy by yet again extracting more power and performance out of the NEW 6th Generation Regal!

      Thus, we proudly present our calibration for the 2018--Present Buick Regal Sportback, Avenir, and TourX, equipped with the 2.0L Turbo (LTG) engine!

    TRIFECTA Driver Selectable Vehicle Modes (DSVM):

    Modify driving profiles based on the cruise control enable setting (vehicles equipped with cruise control only)

    Standard Mode:  Cruise Control ON (armed) = Vehicle responds to pedal input and shift logic similar to factory programming

    TRIFECTA Sport ModeCruise Control OFF (disarmed) = Vehicle responds more aggressively to throttle input, shifts are optimized for performance
     


    TRIFECTA Performance Auto Stop Mode (PASM):

    Allows the driver to enable a performance-oriented auto-stop mode which, in most cases, inhibits auto-stop from enabling for improved performance character, when desired (triggered by the cruise control arming button)

    -TourX models include industry exclusive support for 8-Speed Aisin AF50-8 transmission (RPO: MRC)
    -Improved shift times in adverse shift patterns
    -Improved shift logic - shifts are progressive and purposeful
    -Does not shorten transmission life or increase cooling requirements
    -Retains all OE diagnostics and TCM functionality
    -Retains all OE error code reporting and functionality

    Was wondering do I have to remove the ecm and ship it out or is there a performance center I take it to to have this work around done

    How does the Auto Stop Delete calibration differ from the Performance Auto Stop Mode?

    thank you,

    Hi Chris,

    "PASM" only disables AutoStop in Sport Mode (Cruise Control disarmed). 

    Our AutoStop Delete package disables AutoStop outright.

    PASM can optionally be requested to be replaced with ASD in our performance calibration.

    Hi - does the 8-speed TourX model require mailing in of the TCM?  Above the 9-speed is singled out as not needing removal, but doesn't explicitly say the 8-speed musty be removed.

     

    Thank you.

    Why can't the 2.0t use e85?

    The 2.0T didn't come with E85/Flex Fuel support from the factory, however it can be retrofitted!

    This is the sort of modification that is supported under our Elite calibration tier.  👍
