2018--2020 Chevrolet Equinox - 2.0L Turbo - Elite

(0 reviews)
$888.00
TRIFECTA 2018+ Chevrolet Equinox
2.0L Turbo
9-speed automatic
Detailed power gains (measured at the wheels, dynojet chassis dyno)
Gains "under the curve" of up to +53 ft-lbs torque, +47 horsepower (peak vs peak gains of up to 43 ft-lbs torque, +27 horsepower)
TRIFECTA's 2018+ Equinox recalibration is complimented by a fully developed 9-speed automatic transmission calibration to support the increased power delivery profile and to offer dramatically improved driving characteristics for everyday driving maneuvers. The complete powertrain calibration also includes ESC (Stabilitrak) program enhancements.
Specifications of the TRIFECTA Performance 2018+ Equinox ECM software reprogramming:
Fuel economy is improved dependent on fuel grade and driving conditions 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 Tested on all available grades of fuel (87, 89, 91, 92, and 93 octane).  
Specifications of the TRIFECTA Performance 2018+ Equinox 9-speed automatic transmission TCM calibration software reprogramming:
"T87A" 9-speed automatic transmission controller does not need to be removed from the vehicle or "unlocked" 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  
Supplementary Featureset of the TRIFECTA Performance 2018+ Chevrolet Equinox powertrain calibration software reprogramming:
-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 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 are met as well. This article discusses "PASM" in further detail:

Installation Notes:
Estimated installation time of ~20 minutes Premium fuel is recommended for maximum power output, but not required  
Additional information and availability:
This powertrain calibration includes a TRIFECTA powertrain calibration file specific to your vehicle and includes an EZ Flash Cable (TFEZ010U) Powertrain calibrations currently exist for North American vehicles only, with more regions to follow Advertised gains are quoted as 'up to' and may be less for a vehicle operated at altitudes higher than near sea level.  
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.

  • 17 Digit Vehicle Identification Number.

    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.

  • Your selection will inform how we set up your calibration initially, however all options are still calibrated via our remote tuning process.


  • While increasing the surface area of the intercooler can help with cooling, the total volume of the charge air cooling system must also be increased to accomplish this. When there is more volume in the system, the turbo will take longer to spool (known as "turbo lag"), and may benefit from calibration adjustments to improve spool as much as possible.


  • Leave unchanged for no adjustment.

    Updates: You do not need to perform the GPS test again if your tire size hasn't changed since your last update. This includes if you switch gearsets.


    Larger tires will read greater than 60mph on the GPS.
    Smaller tires will read less than 60mph on the GPS.


  • Choose Single File...
    Or drag and drop your file here

    We require a photo showing the speed rating on the tire sidewall as installed on the vehicle. The speed limiter will be raised in the calibration to match the speed rating of the tire.
