    Just installed the Trifecta on my 16 Regal Preimum.I opted for the cruise control disarm. The entire process was easy even for an old guy like me. The difference in performance has exceeded my expetations,espically through the mid range 40mph up. Old girl finally feels like shes breathing and the shifts are swift and instant when at full throttle,no more rolling into gear. I just have 1 question. What kind of other performance upgrades can i do before i need to recalibrate the flash? Thanks guys for the awesome tune part,and prooving that only real men wear Bowties.

    I bought a 2016 Regal GS w/AWD used in November of 2024. I had already used Trifecta in a 2011 Regal CXL and was completely satisfied and wanted to do it again. I bought the tune for the 2016 during the Black Friday sale (great savings!). I received the cable and calibration file within two weeks. This tune really brings the engine to life. With the stock calibration, the engine struggles as it gets to the shift points, like its running out of "breath". With the Trifecta cal, the engine pulls right up to the shift points and you can feel the mid-range pull much harder in the seat of your pants! Part throttle is also much more responsive, less pedal needed. I fully believe the dyno curves that Trifecta publishes. +40ft-lbs and +60HP for a 20 minute computer-flash installation, no other mod is going to give you that! These guys know what they're doing and the results are VERY satisfying.

    The installation was very simple and took less than 5 minutes.  I've done several similar canned tunes including the original "chipping", where you actually put in a new chip in your OBDI ECM.  Without a doubt, this Trifecta tune was the most effective.  With most of the other tunes, the differences were very subtle, but the Trifecta tune is immediately obvious.  Throttle tip-in is more aggressive, to the point I was a bit startled when I first hit the gas.  The transmission holds gear for a bit longer which again allows for better throttle response.  I estimate that this gear holding gives my truck 500+ rpm at low throttle, and more under more aggressive throttle applications.  When I completely lift off the throttle, the transmission upshifts to the same gear it would have been in before the tune.  The transmission also holds a gear better when going downhill.  Overall, this makes the truck much more responsive.  Not sure that this will benefit gas mileage.  I've only driven the truck (with the tune) about 60 miles and mileage is down a bit, but that may be due to my overexuberance with the better throttle response and 60 miles is not long enough for a legitimate test.

    Vehicle: 2020 Colorado ZR2 Bison Ext Cab  I've never been that pleased with the drivability of my truck. Transmission slow to downshift, chugging up hills around 30-40mph, takes a lot of throttle input to get much output, in general the truck just felt sluggish. I upsized my tires to 33's (255/80r17) and that made the drivability challenges even worse. My other vehicle is a 2024 BMW X5, and that thing is lightning quick to respond to throttle inputs, selecting gears, and overall sporty drivability, which is expected for that vehicle but made transitioning from driving the X5 to the Colorado even more difficult due to the drastically different shifting and throttle application.  At first I assumed I'd need to upgrade the gearing to 4.10 gears, which is a multi-thousand dollar endeavor. Trifecta tunes have been on my radar for a while and I decided to pull the trigger and try it before going down the rabbit hole of changing gears. I am so glad that I did! This new tune is exactly what this truck needed. Drivability in sport mode even with larger tires, feels very similar to my BMW. Throttle sensitivity is increased drastically and the transmission follows suit nicely. This doesn't change how quickly the transmission shifts (so it shifts slower than my BMW) but it stays in the right gear longer and is more eager to downshift which makes a huge difference. While I was previously considering gears and maybe even a supercharger, this tune alone transformed the truck enough to where they're not even on my radar at this time. The need to tinker might come back, but this tune is a fantastic enhancement to an otherwise awesome truck.

    So far so great. I only had this vehicle for a couple weeks before implementation but my immediate observations are that this tune removed the dead zone at the onset of the throttle. That, combined with whatever shift points TriFecta altered between 45-70mph highway speeds make the swing into traffic far smoother and cleaner versus the stock I got it with. This particular car/transmission in general does seem to like a little push. By that I mean, the first to second shift is still a little chunky when taking it easy (under or at 2k RPM), but heavier pulls in the 3-5k RPM range are excellent with this tune, including the aforementioned first to second. I am planning on doing a couple bolt-on adjustments with their tunes, such as bigger throttle body w/CAI and possibly a cat-back exhaust. More comments to come later after any further ad-ons that require tune adjustments.

    Holy Smokes !   I bought the Chevy Cruze and it was a fun little package - but it had this annoying flat spot and delayed acceleration for daily driver around town.   Trifecta promised improvement  and Trifecta DELIVERED !  I am a believer - the Chevy Cruze  with the Trifecta Tune is  not event the same car GM sold.   This car is a absolute joy to drive now, It is peppy and purrrs to life at the blip of the throttle.   With the tune it just grabs a gear and gets moving !!  You literally can feel the seat dyno improvement IMMEDIATELY after programming. THANK YOU Trifecta !  What an amazing product.   GM could take some notes and it should have come from the factory this way!!!

    Improved driveability. I should have gotten it two years ago.

    I purchased the Advantage with auto stop/start disable and was very surprised on the performance difference! My Terrain is much more fun to drive really "takes off" now! The customer service has be great. The file transfer/upload was very easy and no issues. I have already shared my positive experience with others that own GMC/Buick/Cheverolet vehicles and definetely recomend a Trifecta tune.

    Nothing short of an amazing experience. I send these guys a message and I have a super knowledgeable answer within minutes during business hours.  Tune is amazing, car has tons more power and pull, didn't think the ltg could be this fun  Also the tune cleared my check engine lights from the CAI and downpipe. They have me logging 30 mins of driving to see if we can squeeze any more juice out of the tune. Can't wait to see if we can  Can't recommend these guys or there tunes enough. I'm extremely impressed.  Thanks!

    THIS IS A MUST! The car feels completely different, with so much more torque, improved shifting, and even a better sound!

    Got the Advantage for 2017 XT5.  Great program for the car.  it now drives and operates as it should have.  Throttle response is far better, shifting far better and I got rid of that damn stop start function.  Gahd, I hat that function or that it wasnt something that I could shut off on my own.  Anyway... better power, better response, and far more enjoyable to drive.  Great job

    2022 Chevy Colorado ZR2 Bison. After adding 33's and swapping to 4:10 gears I no longer had cruise control and the speedometer was way fast which i wanted to correct. Not only did those get corrected but the performance of the truck is hands down better and way more enjoyable to drive. My only regret was waiting as long as I did to order the tune. I would highly recommend this for your 3.6 Colorado's.

    I’ve had the Canyon for several years and generally did not enjoy driving it . The truck felt super heavy and slow. After installing the Trifecta Tune, it came alive and the shifts were timing right and bringing immediate power. I’ve tuned a bunch of my cars over the years but never with such great results. This tune is a fix for the crappy Canyon transmission. I’m very pleased.

    Purchased the advantage tune for my 2021 Camaro LT1 A10 and within a couple of days my tune file was sent to me. The guys at Trifecta performance did a great job! After the flash I went for a quick test drive & instantly noticed increased throttle response as soon as touching the gas. As far as performance an butt dyno thoughts I noticed the car throwing me back in the seat more then before and overall shifted more precise. As well as the afm delete an being able to switch it back on with Touring mode I feel this tune is for sure worth it and Id recommend it. Thanks again

    First off the customer service with Trifecta team is amazing. I sent no less than 6 messages to ask question that I might have been able to find online or in the FAQ section and I never got any sort of redirection to go read it for myself I got a quick response. They even responded in the middle of the day on a Sunday which is unusual for most companies. The shipping of the cable was very fast and the downloading process was simply as well. The directions are clear and it is very easy to do with a laptop. It took about 20 minutes to flash the truck. I have had it now for about 3 days and it is a different ride. I prefer to drive in ECO mode and the throttle response is like it should be, no lag especially compared to the untuned version. The shift points are spot on the way it makes sense. I am still trying to figure out why Chevy did it this way at the factory. I have been told it was to get the numbers up on the MPG. I have done about 100 miles since the tune and my trip has 23.6 MPG I have never had that before, probably because you have to smash the throttle to get it to go. So why oh why was it not like this from the factory? I would highly recommend it if you are not satisfied with the way your truck shifts or the lag in throttle response, it fixed both for me. Also not sure if it has anything to do with the tune or not but I was having issues with my keyfob it would not response when I would lock the doors, I like to do it twice and hear the horn to confirm and a lot of times I would hit the button and it would lock but I couldn't get the horm unless I pushed it 3 or 4 more times. Well since the tune that is not an issue, 2 pushes of the button and it locks and the horn goes off.

    I purchased the tune back in 2022 black Friday sale. I have had other trifecta tunes and all well done. These received the detuned version of the ATS & Camaro 2.0 as many already know. That wouldn't work, so I installed the tune. Definite difference, all positive. Fast forward to recent events. Began having low power issues between 4700 to 5100 rpm. Turned out it was happening on the stock tune, also so it wasn't Trifecta's issue. I found the GFB diverted valve from the land down under and it took care of it.  Thanks for a great product. I'll be back for more.....if there are any ICE vehicles left. 🤔

    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!!!

    Completely different car after the tune. Incredible how much more power they can extract from the car. Shifts way better. I hated how the car used to think for a second and then accelerate when i pressed on the gas. The cars power output is way more predictable now. Definitely worth the price. 100% worth it!

    Got this for my 2015 Escalade. The performance improvement is great. It also helps with smooth shifting.
