2016--2019 Chevrolet Cruze / Cruze Hatch - 1.4L Turbo - Elite

(7 reviews)
$749.00
TRIFECTA is pleased to announce the Generation II Chevrolet Cruze MY2016--2018+ vehicle software recalibration (reflash) for vehicles utilizing the 1.4L turbo (LE2) engine with either the 6 speed automatic transmission (6T35 / RPO:MNU) or 6 speed manual transmission (M32-6/ RPO: MF3). Specific gains over factory calibration are up to (uncorrected) 97lb-ft of torque and 59 horsepower, with peak gains showing at up to 74lb-ft of torque and 51 horsepower, with no vehicle modifications beyond the calibration.
The TRIFECTA Powertrain Calibration for the Generation II MY2016--2018+ Chevrolet Cruze includes a TRIFECTA EZ Flash Cable (TFEZ010U).
Specifications of the TRIFECTA Performance Generation II MY2016--2018+ Chevrolet Cruze 1.4L turbo LE2 ECM software reprogramming:
Gains of up to +97 ft-lbs and +59 WHP under the curve (and +74 ft-lbs and +51 WHP peak) on 92 octane Powertrain calibration has been tested and validated for various environments, such as cold/heat, elevation, and variations in fuel quality Power feels linear and immediately responsive (improved drivability and throttle attentiveness) Retains all GM OE diagnostics and ECM functionality Retains all OE error code reporting and functionality Emissions readiness checks are present; emissions compliant Maintains functionality of ABS and TC systems Knock detection mechanisms and OE engine knock detection sensitivity is retained Return to stock functionality included with EZ Flash cable and software Specifications of the TRIFECTA Performance Generation II MY2016--2018+ Chevrolet Cruze 6T35 (Gen 3) 6-Speed automatic transmission TCM calibration software reprogramming:
Supplementary 6T35 Gen 3 (autostop capable) transmission TCM reprogramming compliments the ECM reprogramming and completes the TRIFECTA Powertrain Calibration: designed to work in unison with the ECM reprogramming for optimized performance Improved shift times in adverse shift patterns Improved shift logic (improved drivability) Does not shorten transmission life or increase cooling requirements Retains all OE diagnostics and TCM functionality Retains all OE error code reporting and functionality Improved fuel economy with improvements made to torque converter slip profiles Retains all factory drive modes: Drive, “L quadrant” Supplementary Featureset of the TRIFECTA Performance Generation II MY2016--2018+ Chevrolet Cruze powertrain calibration software reprogramming:
TRIFECTA PASM (Performance Auto Stop Mode): When the cruise control subsystem is armed (via the steering wheel button), auto-stop works normally, just as it did from the factory. When the cruise control subsystem is disarmed, auto-stop events are re-calibrated with sport and performance strictly in mind (available only with vehicles equipped with cruise control from the factory). Furthermore, the feature can be enabled and disabled at any time. For example: If the vehicle is auto-stopped, switching the cruise control subsystem off causes the engine to restart immediately. If the engine is running because no auto-stop event could occur due to the cruise control system being disabled, enabling it will cause the engine to stop immediately, provided all of the other auto-stop criteria above is met as well.
  TRIFECTA DSVM (Driver Selectable Vehicle Modes): Modify driving profiles based on the cruise control enable setting (vehicles equipped with cruise control only) Cruise Control ON (armed) = Vehicle responds to pedal input and shift logic similar to factory programming Cruise Control OFF (disarmed / TRIFECTA mode) = Vehicle responds more aggressively to throttle input, shifts are optimized for performance* * Fuel economy observed in TRIFECTA mode was observed to be similar to original factory fuel economy figures assuming “regular” driving style is adhered to
  TRIFECTA Advanced Zoned Knock Control Algorithm: Customized operating system enhancements allow for zoning of knock adaptation factors to provide superior dynamic knock detection and control. Allows for operation with improved power profiles under factory-specified minimum fuel requirements (“87 octane” – see owner's manual for full details) as well as fully optimized power with higher octane fuels.*

*some environments and locales may require the use of premium fuel.
  Installation Notes:
Estimated installation time of ~20 minutes Premium fuel is recommended for maximum power output, but not required 1.4L turbo LE2 dyno (on 92 octane pump gas) (this vehicle is a 2016--2018+ Chevrolet Cruze with the 1.4L turbo LE2 engine) - stock wheels/tires

Additional information and availability:
 This powertrain calibration includes a TRIFECTA powertrain calibration file specific to your vehicle and includes an EZ Flash Cable (TFEZ010U) Advertised gains are quoted as 'up to' and may be less for a vehicle operated at altitudes higher than near sea level. Custom features such as DSVM and PASM may not be available on non-US market vehicles. Please inquire with us prior to purchase if you have an export model or other non-US specification Cruze. TRIFECTA Elite:
The TRIFECTA Elite Powertrain Recalibration includes calibration individualization, remote diagnostics, and comprehensive aftermarket hardware software integration support.  If you have any modifications which require tune customization, or have special requests, our Elite tier offers unlimited updates for mods/requests for as long as you own the vehicle. There are no extra charges once you choose Elite, and if you have Advantage already, you can simply upgrade to Elite for the difference in price at any time.

Huge night and day difference in my 19 cruze. Highly recommend trifecta over every other tuner. Cruise control option is super nice to have in slow city traffic. Car pulls way harder now and shifts are firmer and faster. Car doesnt lug around as much anymore.

WOW! super nice just put the tune in my 2019 cruze and took it around the block! Good thing the cops where not around took my stock car with a AEM C/A intake to a hole new level. I put the tune in with the hopes of a small boost in hp and i was taken back by the large kick in the a$$! So i gess what i am saying after 10 mins of having the tune it was well worth the money and i took the leap rite off the bat and went elite package! Money well spent so if your looking to tune your car look no where else no need for a tune in a can from auto store lol  cant wait to see what all they can do once i upgrade the car more !

Hi! I have a 2017 Chevy Cruze RS hatch manual transmission. Mods are K&N intake kit and GM performance cat-back exhaust. The Elite tune software provided by Trifecta is my very first tune on any car i own. So after I got the calibration tune from trifecta I immediately started the process of flashing my tune in my Cruze. And MAN...I was speechless! Let me tell you, after I started of my first gear on manual, just a small throttle on the gas pedal, I was pulled back into my seat. For weighing 220 lbs my 2003 toyota Camry v6 never gave me this type of reaction. The Cruze pulls very hard and speeds up drastically compared to factory specs. This tune should of been what the cruzes of gen 2 should of have out of the factory. With the mods I have now with tune is definitely faster than my 03 Toyota Camry v6. I am well satisfied and will continue to do more mods with the elite tune. Thanks Trifecta!

Install only TRIFECTA Performance software.

 

The output is slightly increased.

 

 

Open intake increases even more.

 

 

No need to spend money on open intake

 

A hole in the basic intake box.

 

 

Doesn't the constant velocity joint break? I'm worried about that.  

 

 

But the question is

Since the intake air volume has increased, should the exhaust pipes also increase?

 

I think something will get better.

I cant recommend enough this product, I did alot of research before I went with trifecta & in all the forums they kept popping up. I went with the elite so I could do some fine tuning to my personal driving preference, the standard tune they send is great it shift very quickly & you will notice IMMEDIATELY a huge difference in power.

I knew when I changed my exhaust system & added the AEM intake it may change the tune. They were worked with me & I now have several, there named by me but I have a performance economic which is slightly lower in power but very high in MPGS. Now when I'm comparing it in power I also have an extreme tune which eats twice the gas or more but it will take the car to its absolute limits. My coworker has a new accord sport turbo & that tune absolutely smokes him on the Texas tollway. Now all the tunes have amazing take off power , the Cruze has potential & trifecta can get as much or as little as you want out of it.
