2019 Impala LT, 3.6. This tune really woke it up. Drivability is greatly improved, passing is much easier, and the shifting is on point.

This tune made a huge difference in all aspects of the driving characteristics of a 2019 Chevy Equinox LT. The throttle is noticeably more responsive, and the transmission shifts are quicker, more decisive and it downshifts when you press the brake when coming down an incline. I loaded the tune and drove the car with 87 octane gas, and the power increase was impressive. When I used all of that gas and refilled with premium, the power increase was even more impressive. If you get this tune, pay the little extra for premium because it is worth it. So much so that it feels like a much bigger engine, because the power delivery is more linear with no turbo lag. The lag made the 1.5 liter engine feel underpowered at times, especially when merging onto the freeway. If you have problems merging into fast moving traffic, then you really need this tune. I like this tune so much that I am really thinking of getting it for another 2019 Equinox, maybe this holiday season I will get it.

This tune changed my truck. I cannot recommend this enough to someone that really loves their Colorado and cares about the quality of their driving experience. Trifecta support has also been very helpful with all my questions as well. 10/10 recommend!

This was worth every penny! As others have stated in some of the reviews, if you are on the fence about purchasing this, do it! I waited weeks to pull the trigger. It took 3 days for the cable to show up, then later that day the file was ready to download. It took maybe 15-20min and bam! I live right next to a highway. I gave half throttle and Whooosh! I laughed like a madman. Hahaha! I had low expectations, and this blew them out of the water. I can actually pass other vehicles with ease, at part throttle to half throttle. Before I had to plan ahead, go full throttle and pray. The only mod I have is a custom cold air intake and this tune. I chose this over all other tunes due to ease of access, price and most of all for the switching of the tune via the cruise control arming switch. It is great having a "go fast button". I noticed a 1mpg drop, but I bet that is due to my heavier foot having fun with the tune. Overall, in either mode the car runs noticeably better. No issues before the tune, so I was surprised at the smoother idle and just general better feel of the car in either mode. Clear instructions, ease of install, no core or credits like other tuners using HP tuners. Easy upgrade options. Great customer service. I feel this is the best choice for tuning your Cruze. It makes the daily drive have some fun moments.

2021 Blazer 30K miles with a K&N cold air intake (soon to be a muffler delete). Shipping was surprisingly quick and I received the file for my blazer in a few hours. The installation / download / upload, was super easy. The video and instructions are easy to follow and make the process simple. The ability to go back to factory settings is a huge plus. The addition of being able to use the cord and program as a OBD2 diagnostic tool as well is awesome. After you see the program say "complete" this is where the fun begins. My MPG went from 19.1 to 21.5 not driving it super soft or trying for high MPG. The shifting.... should have been like this from the factory. Its always in the right gear at the right time. Downshifting faster and more accurately. staying in 1st longer for easier take off and not lugging the engine like the factory setting. Revving the engine out perfectly for how much you have the pedal pushed down. Smooth and precise is the quick and dirty of it. The delay in the pedal response between cruzing speed and full throttle seams to be greatly reduced. As for the power, I was not expecting much to be honest, but what I got was an awakening of a beast. Its no corvette but the other day a challenger was trying to come up on me and cut me off and I was able to..... not let him in front of me. Had the biggest smile on my face afterwards. The MPG and trans are worth it alone but the added power IS noticeable and welcome. 100% worth it.

Our 2019 2.0 Terrain has been completely transformed with this tune into a really fun to drive vehicle. The transmission shifts much better, the dreaded auto stop is gone, and the power increase is very noticeable. Thanks for a great product!

Being a test engineer and amateur car racer/ mechanic, I have little trust in most “Seat of the pants” reviews. I believe in real lap times and acceleration time data when validating modifications. Here are the real facts of the Advantage tune on my 2019 2.0T Equinox. 0-60 GM Sales department advertised time stock 6.6 Sec My real life tests. 0-60 at 20c 94 Octane 7.0 sec 0-60 at 20c 87 Octane 7.2 sec 0-60 at 20c 87 Octane Trifecta Advantage Tune 6.3 sec Real power increase to go from 7.0 to 6.3 sec is about 24 HP Trifecta tunes deliver. BTW: Thank you for the ability to select the performance mode using the CC. Even though the performance mode works good for sporty driving I find shifts too jumpy during my daily commute. Yet …even with CC on if I nail the throttle, I still get maximum down shift and full power of the tune when I need it.

I just installed this tune, first of all, it was so easy to install, did it with my 10 year old beat up hp laptop. The tune itself fixed my shuddery and struggling transmission, u dont feel like clicks anymore when shifting. Then sport mode has an obvious power boost and response boost. For 449 you can not go wrong, don't buy ur dealers bs warranty, take some action and tune ur 8spd colorado with Trifecta.

2021 GMC Canyon Elevation Crew Cab 4x4 stock......all I can say is WOW....night & day difference...do I recommend this tune on a Stock Canyon....Yes...yes...yes...worth every pennies.

About a month ago, I decided to purchase a tune for my 2019 Cadillac CTS 2.0T, and the results have far exceeded my expectations. Initially, I was hesitant, skeptical, and uncertain about whether the performance gains would be noticeable or worthwhile. However, after spending time researching user feedback and discussions in enthusiast forums, I took the leap. I only wish I had done it sooner. The transformation has been remarkable. Before the tune, my vehicle suffered from noticeable throttle lag and inconsistent, sometimes jarring shift patterns that made the driving experience feel less refined than it should. Since the tune, throttle response is immediate, shifting is significantly smoother and more intuitive, and overall drivability has improved to a degree that genuinely surprised me. What I appreciate most is how the tune restored a sense of engagement and excitement behind the wheel. The CTS feels more responsive, more capable, and frankly, more in line with what you'd expect from a luxury sport sedan. If you're experiencing similar frustrations with your 2.0T, I strongly recommend considering a tune. It’s a meaningful upgrade that not only enhances performance but also elevates the overall driving experience. You won’t regret it.

You have no idea how happy i was with this purchase! I was a little worried at first being I've never programmed my ecm before, but this worked! It more than worked, it did everything it promised and more. My malibu has auto stop/start and well the start part never worked. I'd be sitting at stop lights for 5+ minutes trying to start my car again well NO MORE! This saved me thousands of dollars and mutiple migraines. Thank you Trifecta. I will be suggesting you to every gen 8 malibu owner!

I want to say if you are thinking about purchasing this, don't hesitate. It has changed my truck in only positive ways. The transmission is now smooth. The throttle response in the cruise off setting is awesome. It's like going back to a throttle cable. And the power knocks the change out of my dashboard holder. I am actually getting up to 2mpg better in the economy setting. It will be the best upgrade to your truck. I have the 6.2 and turned off AFM in HP setting and left AFM on in economy setting. The purchase and install were easy. I highly recommend Trifecta!

This is a must have. I wish I would have bought this as soon as I got this truck. We had nothing but transmission problems. After converter flush, converter, valve body a new transmission and another converter all under warranty within 60k. At 80k the shutter and constant converter and gear hunting came back. At this point in time it was my last shot, so I serviced the transmission, installed lube guard in the trans. Then installed the tune. Wow, totally different truck. Should have worked this way from the factory. After 33 years of being a mechanic I would recommend this tune to everybody that owns a Colorado to purchase this tune. At this point we have put 2k on the truck and works flawless, not to mention how much better the engine runs!

First, I want to say the customer service is the best.. My emails and phone calls about any questions that I had were answered in a timely manner. (before and after the purchase) I had contacted other tuners and chose Trifecta because of the reviews and response to my questions. I purchased this tune for my sons Colorado because it was sluggish, shifted poorly and overall performance for a V6 was very disappointing. This tune on a factory stock truck made it work like it should. The shifts are much better, the engine and throttle response are great. It feels like a new truck. I would not hesitate to use them for future tunes and highly recommend their products and services. Thank you to Trifecta.

The difference is VERY noticeable I reached out, with basic questions, that were answered very well, and with real care. This helped me solidify my decision to move forward. Once I ordered it, it came in a timely fashion. And the process was really simple, one note, to program properly, in my 2017 Cadillac ATS, I held the start button for 5 seconds. This put the car in "programming mode" , which is designed for key fob programming, and obd2port scans and such. It made the process super easy. From start to finish, it took about 15 minutes. And the car rebooted and then was ready. I took it for a test drive, and the difference! WOW! Shes MOVING!! lol. But I did have a check engine light. I reached out to support, and they helped me thru it, I had to provide logs of my driving, and they analyzed them. They even told me about a misfire they detected, and recommended spark plugs! Once the new tune was made, and they adjusted it for the airflow (of my aftermarket intake), we ran a few more tests to gather logs, And I'm VERY happy with the end result. My car is STUPID fast, and responsive. And the fact that they are willing to answer any questions (even some potentially dumb ones) is really nice. I never felt like I was being talked down to, or like they didn't care. Thats pretty dope in today's world, to feel like the people you interact with actually give a damn. It's been a great experience. And if you are thinking about it, for your car, I'd say go for it. I have NOT regretted it.

Trifecta has supplied tunes for most of my vehicles, this one is for my Wife's truck, her pride and joy. bought new in 2018, installed the 4" lift she always wanted. It is just over 30,000 miles now, and it's always performed and run well with the V6. But... getting the truck to GO always required foot to the floor and wait for the ECM to decide you really should get the "full pull". After her first trip out with the truck she was thrilled the truck actually goes with the proportional amount of "foot feed" requested. 3 weeks now and happy as ever with her new truck, no more hesitation, no more gear hunting... it's always in the gear you want for the drive we want! Service and delivery are always great, questions are answered quickly and completely. A great team with products I trust. Will be taking my 2007 GXP on the Hot Rod Power Tour this summer, if you see me out there... and can catch up... hit me up for info on what these people can do for your rides. Doug

Purchased the "Advantage" package during the Black Friday special for my '19 TourX and have been using it for 3 months. Dollar for dollar nothing will improve your TourX's performance better than this tune. The tune is a bargain and a blast. It makes the vehicle just flat out fun to drive. I've found that the most dramatic effect is when you stomp on it around 35 mph and the TourX goes into rocket ship mode and just takes off. And it keeps going and going and going. I swear the faster it goes the harder it accelerates. Triple digits happen in a heartbeat. Out of curiosity, I asked Trifecta if the tune eliminated the top speed governor (155 mph from the factory). They stated it does not. I'm curious what the top speed could be with the tune installed and the governor eliminated. If anyone knows.... Install was easy and took about 8 minutes. There are various options. I set mine to always be on, unless cruise control is activated. Also, I set it to disable auto stop-start. A minor note is that the vehicle idles more smoothly with the tune enabled. Before installing the tune, I would engage auto-stick mode at a stop to prevent the engine from cutting out. It idled OK, but it wasn't as smooth as I would have liked. With the tune, the vehicle idles very smoothly. The only other modification I wanted to make was a change to the exhaust to give it a little more grumble. However, I've found that with Trifecta's longer gears, I have enough grumble to keep me happy so it saved that expense. Also, just like before the tune, 93 octane makes a noticeable difference. All octanes will work fine but, for maximum effect, 93 it must be. I'm very happy with my sleeper wagon with just the Trifecta tune, but I also like the fact that I can upgrade should I ever decide to make other modifications. Overall, 5 glorious stars. Fun, fun, fun!

Yup, just like all the other reviews said... I have a 2018 LT and this tune is no joke. The best way to say it is, your car will rev higher and stay at a higher RPM when accelerating making it stupid fast without much pedal in it. It feels like the fuel map just runs away on you when you barely touch the pedal. As far as the better MPG, I don't know how I will ever save any gas, it's almost always running at a higher RPM and its more fun so I'm on it more often than before the tune... Plus, now I'm paying for Premium Fuel... and not to mention all the front tires I'll go through now...lol...
