    The car has top end now and the throttle is a lot more responsive. Thanks for the great tune!

    I just finished my install today and had to do some running around and I can not begin to tell you how much nicer this truck runs.   I have always hated the lack of power and reluctance to downshift, or even the trucks inability to just be in the right gear for the right speed and torque requirement. GM definitely missed the mark in the stock tune, be it for EPA ratings, or the want to provide higher MPG numbers to the consumer at the risk of undesirable drive-ability.   This tune has the truck driving like it should of been from the factory. Immediately after install I took my wife to the airport, which involves 15 minutes of intermediate roads (25 to 45 mph and open stretches with occasional stoplights) and about 20 minutes of highway. I stayed in "sport mode" which is achieved by pressing the left steering wheel thumb wheels 3 o'clock button to turn the cruise control off (no white little speedo with a little arrow showing in the bottom left of the DIC) for most of the drive and never once felt the usual lack of power when in a situation that the stock tune allowed the truck to drop the rpms to barely 1000 while traveling at 30 mph, only to stumble when asking for power to accelerate.   Once on the highway I tried ECO mode, which was achieved by turning on the cruise control by pressing the 3 o'clock button again. I went ahead and set a cruise control speed for 67 and did my highway driving, very similar to the stock tune at speeds greater than 50 mph. When I exited the highway I wasn't thinking about it and stayed in ECO mode, and at the airport felt a slight under power situation like stock when climbing the ramp for departures, no where near as bad as the stock tune would have reacted, but a quick hit of the 3 o'clock button and you feel the truck come to life and the stutter disappeared.   If you are on the fence, or have been looking for an answer to your dislike of how the truck responds to low rpm throttle requests, get the tune. Well worth it in my opinion, I loved the look of my truck and hated its powertrain...now I love both.   I cant comment on fuel efficiency for a couple reasons   1) I just lifted the truck and haven't gotten used to its fuel efficiency hit 2) my speedo just got corrected with this tune and have only about 50 miles under my belt with it, any numbers I had before were skewered by the wrong speed 3) we recently switched to a winter blend gas here and I have already noticed a hit on mileage 4) I didn't buy a Prius, mileage is not a concern to me. Its a a new truck and coming from a 17 year old previous vehicle...anything is better!   Bottom line, if you are unhappy with your truck performance, this tune it is. Its not something outlandish, nothing crazy, but feels like what you would have expected the stock tune to be.

    WOW just WOW. I was giggling like a school girl. So I just received my cable and flashed the Advantage+ tune on my truck. Then took it for a spin. Pulled off my street and gave it a little gas 45 mph in no time. Hit eco mode and cruised through a few developments. Went to get on I-95 and jumped on it getting on the on ramp. First it broke the rear end lose which it's never done before while having traction control on. We recovered and I hit the freeway and looked down 95mph. Look these trucks are no slouch from the factory but, Trifecta man they nailed it with this tune. It shifts a million times better. Throttle response is night and day. When you hit about 2500 RPM it now wants to pull like a mule on fire. I can't wait till Sunday to hook up to my travel trailer and tow it 70 miles back to the house. I want to see the performance increase while towing. I also used to get a little clunk if I let off the gas and shortly got back on the gas. That is gone. It really is a completely different truck. Don't worry about them "OTHER" tuners. At $400 this is a deal. At $300 I feel like I stole it. Its like I did an LS7 swap. (Oh man that's an idea...   Thank You Trifecta now I can't wait to drive my truck again.

    For starters I'm in Denver so my elevation it's 5000+ get all the time.   This tune is a night and day difference, and really opens 6th gear up at lower speeds for practical use. The engine has a fairly narrow power band so, the tune isn't going to fix that. Once you're in the power it pulls like a different car altogether.   The gas mileage will tend to go way way down, this is to be expected if you actually use it though. If you drive light you can still get close to stock mileage. I wish the driving mode selection was more like the one Cobb uses for other cars.   My only real gripe about this tune is it goes into the body a little quickly, the slightest use of the gas pedal can put you way into it, so it really means you gave to use eco mode a lot of you don't want to constantly be on the boost. Having a more gradual or adjustable feel to the throttle would be nice.

    This completely woke up my 2015 AWD Buick Enclave. I cannot believe how much this tune improved the transmission shift points. Love the fact that the tune for the transmission is full time and can select the engine tune on or off with the cruise button. For the price you will not be disappointed. I have owned the Traverse, Acaidia, and two Enclaves and would say they all drove the same so one could propose that this tune would provide the same result for all the GM LLambda platforms.

    Tune works perfectly, gives this little Buick Encore AWD some much needed extra power!!! At full throttle shifts are much faster and positive feeling. As always I'm very impressed with Trifecta and will always stand by your product!!!

    This is the 3rd vehicle that I have purchased a tune for. This one is that best one I have got yet!!! It is like a totally different truck. The difference is amazing on this vehicle. It was like the engine was breathing threw a straw before. You can even Hear the difference. Revs up so much faster. Engine would fall on its face before @ 4500 RPM. Now revs solid up to red line. It was like something was wrong with the truck before the tune.

    Awesome! Great tech support and prompt responses, I really love what this has done to my vehicle. I had an issue at first and it was addressed ASAP. These guys care about their customers and go out of their way to make you a satisfied customer. This upgrade is the BEST bang for the buck and I highly recommend Trifecta Performance to anyone seeking to get the most out their GM vehicle. I drive a 2017 Chevy Sonic RS Turbo and this vehicle performs just as well as the 2013 Volkswagen GTI with the APR tuning that I had at MUCH less cost. Do not hesitate to get Trifecta Performance tuning for you GM vehicle. You will be BLOWN AWAY to the improvement this makes!

    Flashed re-calibration files to my 2013 v6 Camaro. Wow, I am impressed! I downloaded the files with the Ghost Cam. I like the feature. Also, I won't need to use manual mode on tranny any more. Transmission up and down shifting is much better now. Accelerator response is quicker. Definitely more horsepower and torque. Along with the Catback exhaust, Borla mufflers, and CAI cold air intake, this update makes this a formidable performance car. Thank you!

    The Trifecta tune is the perfect complement to this already great car. I started with the standard tune which provided added power and more responsive throttle response. This was not something I could live with since I often had passengers in the car who weren't of like mind from car perspective. I asked them to create something that gave me the power but left the transmission dynamics mostly unchanged. What I got was something that drove stock when just tooling around town however when you put your foot down the car quickly came to life and could burn rubber at just about any speed. Overall I am very satisfied with the product and the service that has been provided by the team here at Trifecta and would recommend it to anyone who wants to add some attitude to their stock automobile.

    Wow! I am truly impressed! I had no idea what to expect when purchasing the Trifecta Advantage for my 2008 Cadillac CTS 4. I had read a few reviews and all but was really just taking a shot in the dark. The support staff was very generous with answering all of my questions while waiting for the EZ Flash to arrive. I installed the tune and again, wow, what a difference! I was looking for more power and a smoother acceleration in general and got more than I thought would be possible without major mods. I am very pleased with the whole process start to finish. I would (and do everyday right now) highly recommend Trifecta for anybody looking to add an edge to their ride and improve their vehicles performance. 5 STARS! P.S. to the staff- come off one of those license plates!! I think they look great and it would be good marketing for you anyway

    Been running this tune for four days now and boy am I enjoying it. The transmission, in sport, holds the gear for longer, delivers boost much quicker and delivers a nice shove in my back when accelerating vigorously. The transmission also seems to shift a bit faster and, even better, downshifts at better times (e.g. it downshifts earlier coming around a corner and I don't have to wait for the downshift after I am going straight).   It is genuinely money well spent and I am very glad I added this tune. It has changed my car from being boring and, often times, annoying to being enjoyable and peppy to drive. I would not hesitate to order another tune from Trifecta if I get another GM vehicle.

    Let me tell you this tune is like night and day. Very very easy to install and use. I love how you can activate the tune with the cruise control on and off button. Its a good way to tell the difference in power. With this tune I noticed there is no more turbo lag and the transmission shifts awesome. Like I said from a dead stop and the tune is deactivated you can stomp on the pedal and really nothing happens especially no tire chirping. Once you activate that tune and from a dead stop the tires definitely start chirping. It is really awesome and I would recommend this tune for any one looking. This car is my daily driver and probably put 25000 miles a year on it. I was just looking for a little extra and I got that and more.Thanks to Michael for going back and forth with me. He answered all my questions I had. Once again thanks. Maybe one day I will put on more bolt ons and would love to see what tuning can be done from you guys. A++++ 5 BIG STARS!!

    Just installed the Calibration the Trifecta Team sent me, i'm the happiest person on this planet, wish i would have done it alot of time ago.   I live in Italy, and as all the Camaro European customers have been impossibilited to Tune my Ecu till now for the lack of Tuners specialized in this Car here.   This remote Tuning service Trifecta do is a great idea for all of us, i installed all the calibration myself in 10 minutes, extremely easy, and extremely effective. have been followed my the Trifecta support team about any question or doubt i had, best service i had until today, those guys are great.   The car now has a lot of torque down, and keep it all the way until 7000 rpm. The Transmission calibration made an huge difference as well, the shift now are faster and gives you that nice "kick" in the back when shifting at high RPM.   Thanks a lot Guys!

    Absolutely freakin WOW!! I truly did not think that it would have made this much of a difference. But just as others have posted on YouTube, its hype is backed up by performance and truly professional, courteous support team. Thanks guys for bringing this to the table for us to enjoy!!

    I bought this tune a couple of months ago and I must say it's the best performance mod I've ever purchased. The difference is immediately noticeable; accelerates quicker, shifts are smoother and power feels linear. My fuel economy increased from 20MPG to 22.9MP (I have a heavy foot!). I would highly recommend this for anybody that plans to keep their vehicle for a while, it will make you feel you just purchased a new vehicle. By the way, I would like to commend the customer support as they were very quick to answer any questions before I made my purchase.   Isaias Rivera

    Let me first say I'm not the guy who is really anxious to mess with factory stuff on my new truck. However I read about the tune on the Coloradofans forum and I had definitely noticed that the truck seemed sluggish in terms of acceleration considering it has 305 crank HP. In order to merge on a highway, I really had to get on the gas hard to get it to downshift and accelerate. So I got the Advantage tune. It's literally like night and day. Why it doesn't come like this from the factory is a mystery to me (I also got a 2" leveling kit which is how it should have looked from the factory!). The ECO mode feels similar to the stock mode so it's nice to have that option since the sport mode is way too much fun and makes me to drive in ways that are probably not real fuel efficient. Anyway it was an excellent decision to get it and easy to install. Love it.

    Cable arrived here in Canada no problems. I installed the tune as per the instruction and now my car has a lot more power. It almost feels like there is a different engine under the hood. I am accidentally going 20km over the limit because I was so used to the stock tune. Nevertheless, the tune is probably the best thing you could do to your cruze.
