TRIFECTA presents: Chevrolet Cruze 1.4T MY2011--2016 Cruze Limited Calibration
TRIFECTA is pleased to offer our 2011--2015 Chevrolet Cruze and 2016 Chevrolet Cruze Limited performance calibration product!
Having pioneered tuning for the Cruze when it was released in 2011, and having owned and modified multiple Cruzes, we along with our customers have enjoyed, cumulatively, potentially millions of miles with our calibration in various different environments across the world.
Beyond just writing software, we also maintain and modify our own development vehicles:

These cars are used to develop our finished products via a combination of long-term street and dyno tuning, and are also used to ensure we can support any of the many available aftermarket parts for the Cruze. From intake and exhaust components, injectors, intercoolers, and aftermarket turbos, we test it all and validate our calibrations before they reach our customers vehicles. This method ensures the quality and reliability of our products, and allows us to offer competitive pricing no matter the complexity of a build.  We are dedicated to offering the highest level of service and support to all of our customers, before and especially long after the sale.
With our TRIFECTA Performance calibration, your Cruze will respond much more quickly to accelerator input, and automatic transmission shift patterns are optimized for maximum performance and responsiveness. During "everyday" driving maneuvers, the vehicle feels very much like it did from the factory, but rolling into the pedal quickly reveals a vehicle that wants to GO. Attentive, but without being "twitchy", power delivery is linear and transmission shifts are purposeful.
Key features of our product are:
Driver Selectable Vehicle Modes (“DSVM”):
TRIFECTA exclusively offers the ability to change between an “ECO” and a “Sport” driving mode, on the fly, via the arming state of the Cruise Control system.
Sport mode offers aggressive pedal response, more progressive downshifts, extended shift points, and maximizes power output. ECO mode offers economy-centric pedal response and shift points, and commands stock power levels when the Cruise Control system is Armed (but not necessarily engaged). Customers can optionally request a calibration that is ONLY Sport mode, or ONLY ECO mode to suit their needs.
No-Lift-Shift (Manual Transmission):
For vehicles equipped with a manual transmission, No-Lift-Shift allows the driver to quickly execute a shift without lifting their foot off the accelerator pedal.  This allows the turbocharger to continue making boost, thus maintaining power through the shift.
Automatic Transmission Recalibration:
In ECO mode, our transmission calibration provides smoother shifting and improved shift times while maintaining shift points optimized for fuel economy.
In Sport mode, upshifts are more purposeful, and precisely timed progressive downshifts enable a more sporty feel while remaining closer to the correct gear for more of the time for quick transitions to sporty driving.
Power and Performance:
Our calibration offers a reliable gain in power of up to +51 ft-lbs and +44 whp peak power on a totally stock Chevrolet Cruze 1.4T (LUJ/LUV).
1.4T (LUV) dyno graph(on 91 octane pump gas) (this vehicle is a 2014 Chevrolet Cruze 1.4T) - stock wheels/tires:

 
Telemetry-proven gains in acceleration
Using professional grade industry-standard telemetry equipment, TRIFECTA has also established proven gains of up to 2.25 seconds in 0-60MPH acceleration times versus the factory calibration through power gains, throttle ramp rates, and shift schedule optimization.

Quarter mile times improve by 1.41 seconds and 7mph vs stock, illustrating the cars broader powerband and ability to maintain that power up to highway speeds from a stop.

Other Software Enhancements:
Enhanced octane adaptation constructs (including additional knock zones) which allow for more precise control over how the ECM responds to changes in octane bias - a bad tank of gas or adverse resonance from aftermarket components will be more readily identified. Added airflow-based constructs to account for adverse environmental conditions, especially when alternative fuels are used or an aftermarket turbocharger is installed.  This results in less reactive and more proactive changes in boost control. Thorough calibration of the ECM’s Virtual Torque Model - The torque model determines how much torque the ECM thinks the engine is making, and must be as correct as possible. TRIFECTA ECP.MK2 (Hybrid Speed Density) support and constructs added to enable support of modifications such as vent-to-atmosphere valves by mitigating transient fueling changes especially between shifts. TRIFECTA Advantage+:
The TRIFECTA Advantage+ Powertrain Recalibration includes calibration individualization, remote diagnostics, and limited aftermarket hardware software integration support.  If you have certain modifications which require tune customization, or have certain special requests, our Advantage+ tier offers unlimited updates for certain mods/requests for as long as you own the car. 
Examples of modifications we support at the Advantage+ tier are:
Cold air intakes Exhaust components Larger throttle bodies Oversized injectors (e.g. 60lb) via native access to the vehicles FPCM/CCM Aftermarket wastegate actuators Aftermarket bypass valves Rev limiter / Speedometer changes Ask us!   All of these modifications are supported either via us installing them on our own test fleet and developing plug-and-play calibrations, or via our remote tuning process.  In all cases, datalogging is performed to ensure all modifications are installed correctly and the vehicle is operating as it should.

If you need calibration for more advanced modifications which require more initial setup or datalogging time, such as:
Flex Fuel Aftermarket turbos "Stage 1" cams Meth injection Nitrous We offer these at our Elite calibration tier:
Additional information:
This powertrain calibration includes a TRIFECTA powertrain calibration file specific to your vehicle and includes an EZ Flash Cable, which requires a Windows Laptop. Premium fuel is recommended for maximum power output, but not required. Advertised gains are quoted as 'up to' and may be less for a vehicle operated at altitudes higher than near sea level. Powertrain calibrations currently exist for all global variants of the Chevrolet Cruze with the LUJ/LUV engine. Automotive Press:

  • 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.

  • What is this?

  • An Additional Fuel Pump Control Module / Chassis Control Module calibration is provided when 60lb injectors are selected. We also include the ability to flash this module back to stock.

    More info:
    TRIFECTA: Now serving 60 lb/hr fuel injectors for your 1.4T (LUJ/LUV)

    You do not need to remove or purchase an aftermarket FPCM/CCM, since we are able to tune your factory unit.

  • What is this?

  • Special engine calibration provisions are required to compensate for metered air that is expelled from the system during bypass events when the vehicle is equipped with a vent-to-atmosphere style bypass valve.

  • 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.

    This field can be updated later under 'Manage Purchases'

I have a 2012 Cruze LT automatic with numerous bolt on upgrades. I chose the Advantage+ tune from Trifecta due to their experience with tuning the Cruze, and the simple interface. No overprice rental boxes! The Advantage+ has really transformed my Cruze from a boring, heat soaking, lack luster daily driver, into a potent and really fun car!! Gone are all of the “bad habits” the factory engineered into it. Best of all, it still returns between 26.5 to 28 MPG! Talk about having your cake and eating it too! 
 

Trifecta are a great bunch of folks, and are very patient and understanding! The tune itself went without issue, but when I took the car out the first time, it threw a ck eng light and bucked hard on WOT. I sent the data log in, and what they found was my car actually blowing out the plugs under heavy boost. They made the recommendation of a set of ruthenium plugs, after installation it was like a different car! 
 

I’ve been running the car now since October with the tune, and I couldn’t be happier! I offer my sincerest thanks to the folks here at Trifecta!!!
