2013--2019 Cadillac ATS - 2.0L Turbo - Advantage

(7 reviews)
$529
TRIFECTA is pleased to announce the immediate availability of the 2013--2019 Cadillac ATS vehicle software recalibration (reflash) for vehicles utilizing the 2.0L Turbocharged engine with either the 8 speed automatic transmission (8L45 / RPO:MYA), 6 speed automatic transmission (6L45 / RPO: MYA), or the 6 speed manual transmission (Tremec 6 / RPO:M3L). Rear wheel drive (RWD) and all wheel drive (AWD) variants are supported. Specific gains over factory calibration are up to (SAE corrected) 52lb-ft of torque and 36 horsepower, with peak gains clocking in at up to 40lb-ft of torque and 22 horsepower, with no vehicle modifications beyond the calibration.


TRIFECTA's 2013--2019 Cadillac ATS recalibration is complimented by a fully developed 8-speed or 6-speed transmission calibration to support the increased power delivery profile and to offer dramatically improved driving characteristics from everyday driving maneuvers to track performance. The complete powertrain calibration also includes ESC (Stabilitrak) and, for all wheel drive (AWD) equipped models, TCCM (transfer case control module) program enhancements.

    Must be exactly 17 digits, 9th digit must be 0--9 or 'X', and cannot contain characters 'I', 'O', or 'Q'.

    We recommend acquiring the VIN directly from the vehicle's VIN Plaque on the dash, or the certification label in the door jamb since insurance and service documents are sometimes incorrect.

  • Support is not officially provided for aftermarket hardware with this calibration, however many hardware components which would normally work without any specific adjustment on the factory calibration may be automatically compatible.

    Examples include:

    -Most Exhaust components

    -Recirculated turbo bypass valves

    -Most brand name intakes (ONLY with any included resonator/venturi designed to prevent the intake from setting any DTCs (Diagnostic Trouble Codes).

I was very impressed with the power output with Trifecta Tune. I highly recommend to anyone with GM vehicles. I felt the difference immediately after installing the calibration file. I will always use Trifecta for my GM tunes. The only thing I would love changed is when my ATS is in tour mode to have the transmission not seem like its ins sport mode and have it closer to stock on the transmission shifting. Sport mode would be ideal to have it hold the shifts. It really does not bother me but I would like it to have two separate modes. :-)

 

Thank you,

Pre sale service = excellent. The guys answered all my questions (30+) like Rock Stars. 

Post sale service = excellent. The guys kept answering all my additional questions and concerns while waiting for the cable to arrive. Top notch and timely responses.  

Tune process = Easy, intuitive, and fail proof (the first three flashes failed due to a bad USB interface on my PC). 4th Flash worked perfectly. No harm done from three failed/interrupted flashes (14%, 94%, 45% completion.... ). EZ Flash has your back. 

Tune results (first impressions after an hour drive through back roads) = It is not the same car. The TCM calibration changed how the car behaves. The ECM calibration solves the dip in TQ at 3k... it keeps pulling now. The upshifts and downshifts are faster and purposeful making the car a blast to drive in manual mode (aka sportshift). On WOT in manual mod you have to really be quick on the upshifts.. things seem to happen a lot fast now  :P

Great mod... adds an aggressive edge to this little Caddy. I'm going to need an updated tire budget.

Love the tune and the guys at Trifecta are awesome! Much quicker acceleration and more aggressive shift points. Added a k&n drop in and a ZZP intake tube. 2nd and 3rd gears slam you back in your seat and I'm at 70 mph in a heartbeat! Perfect for my ATS 2.0t

So, I know absolutely nothing about tuning, mapping, mods, etc. . And that is why I hope my review helps other's who are, like I was prior, feeling hesitant because of lack of knowledge. That said, here is my honest review. The customer service representative who helped me, Michael, was patient, efficient with responses to my inquiries, and explained things in the way I needed to understand. He gave me total confidence in the platform, the product, and was indicative of the very best representation of this company works. As for the tune, after installed , driving home I was almost underwhelmed. Got home, read an article on "contrasting adjustment periods" .( I had literally driven the car ten minutes after the tune and on streets that maintained a 45 mph speed zone. I got up, 2 a.m., and I filled up the tank and just hit the expressway for about an hour there, hour back. It wasn't an additional ten minutes from my second departure I realized I had made the exact right decision. The shifting on point, the power couldn't be denied, the overall drive was a 52 year old man feeling seventeen, more, feeling like I was the smartest guy on the planet. I know it sounds overstated, but here's the thing. In a time where standard business practices is no longer held to standards such as honor, integrity, pride, customer satisfaction, quality; to actually find a company, a product and service, a support team that exemplifies all the afore mentioned is something we the consumer should take note of, and remain loyal too. I'm actually upgrading my plan and I'm certain I've found the right company, with the right products, with the right " Mission statement" . So for those, who like me, are nervous, suspecting, or hesitating. I knew nothing, I was a nervous ball of doubt, I prepared for the worst. Luckily, I found the best. Oh, yeah, the car.. It's a machine. It's alive, and I'm still driving lol. Took a pit-stop to write this, and I'm dying to get back on the road, so in case you missed it, I love my decision, I love my car, thank you Michael, Trifecta, and thank this board for all the great info.

Easy to install and feels much smoother. The power is constant unlike stock tune. This is my 3rd tune from Trifecta no complaints at all. 
5*. Heads up if you are running the red cable you may need to press the on button mid install so the power doesn’t cut out.

Thank you for the Tune. Really easy to download and install to the car was finished in about 8 minutes total. Not only do I feel the car is responding much more to my liking but you can also hear the important parts working the way they were intended. All in all for the $$$ and no mods its the way to go. Looking forward to seeing what it can do over the next few weeks.

 

Thanks again

Another 5 Stars for Trifecta! I loaded the Advantage tune to my 2016 ATS today and all I can say is WOW, the driveability is so much better than stock I just cannot believe it. Now I want to upgrade again. The car was already good, now its really really good. It is amazing what Trifecta has done for my car, man I am in love.
