Really fixed the dead spot in my car. The automatic downshifts sound great too!

Great support for mods. Trifecta is pretty quick to update the tune files for new mods (Sorry for all the changes guys). This tune really perked my car up. It's a lot faster, drivability is better and mileage was relatively unaffected (outside of needing super unleaded). Had an issue with pinging in the summer months, but ran a 41-103 plug which got rid of the issue. 41-108 seems to work fine in the fall-spring. I live in Phoenix, so summer is a special heat......

Once again Bravo!!! I have purchased several tunes and been pleased with all of them. Quick to respond and get me going. I will continue to recommend and promote these fine folks. Thanks again.!!!

Mind blown 🤯. Could not believe what a huge difference the stock tune made. It was like driving a totally different car. Awesome tune. Can't wait to see what a difference the turbo elite makes.

I just bought a 2021 GMC Canyon…. I also have a 2020 Ford Ranger that has a Ford Performance Power Pack tune on it… driving that Ranger then driving the GMC was so depressing… the GMC just plods along, so I immediately grabbed the Trifecta tune and applied it to the GMC… wow, now it drives like it was supposed to and rivals the boosted Ranger… best $$ I ever spent…

Very happy with the results. It's worth it for the throttle response and AFM delete alone. I'm DEFINITELY getting better gas mileage as well, especially in touring. Pictures are from my normal work commute.

This is the second vehicle that I’ve used trifecta for and I’ve been tremendously happy with both so far, with the first vehicle holding strong 5 years later. The tune for the Buick makes an absolute world of difference. While I loved the car I was frustrated with auto shift points, manual shift reaction and throttle reaction. The tune completely turned the wagon into a peppy little rocket that responds immediately to everything I’ve asked of it. Although I have noticed an uptick in mpg’s, it was not a priority for me when originally purchasing. Extremely happy with the results, absolutely worth it.

Rick Marr I just finished downloading my performance up-grade. I am totally blown away!!! The power difference from the stock 270 hp to the now approximately 320 is immense. I did this mainly for the ability to tow my boat without struggling to get up some big very long hills. I can't imagine how well it will do now. Plus the advantage of increased fuel mileage. I'm running on 87 octane but t Chevy recommends high test 91 octane. At the cost of fuel now I'll stick to the regular... Thank you so very much Trifecta. I will proudly use the Trifecta decals and the license plate holder!!!

So, I know absolutely nothing about tuning, mapping, mods, etc. . And that is why I hope my review helps other's who are, like I was prior, feeling hesitant because of lack of knowledge. That said, here is my honest review. The customer service representative who helped me, Michael, was patient, efficient with responses to my inquiries, and explained things in the way I needed to understand. He gave me total confidence in the platform, the product, and was indicative of the very best representation of this company works. As for the tune, after installed , driving home I was almost underwhelmed. Got home, read an article on "contrasting adjustment periods" .( I had literally driven the car ten minutes after the tune and on streets that maintained a 45 mph speed zone. I got up, 2 a.m., and I filled up the tank and just hit the expressway for about an hour there, hour back. It wasn't an additional ten minutes from my second departure I realized I had made the exact right decision. The shifting on point, the power couldn't be denied, the overall drive was a 52 year old man feeling seventeen, more, feeling like I was the smartest guy on the planet. I know it sounds overstated, but here's the thing. In a time where standard business practices is no longer held to standards such as honor, integrity, pride, customer satisfaction, quality; to actually find a company, a product and service, a support team that exemplifies all the afore mentioned is something we the consumer should take note of, and remain loyal too. I'm actually upgrading my plan and I'm certain I've found the right company, with the right products, with the right " Mission statement" . So for those, who like me, are nervous, suspecting, or hesitating. I knew nothing, I was a nervous ball of doubt, I prepared for the worst. Luckily, I found the best. Oh, yeah, the car.. It's a machine. It's alive, and I'm still driving lol. Took a pit-stop to write this, and I'm dying to get back on the road, so in case you missed it, I love my decision, I love my car, thank you Michael, Trifecta, and thank this board for all the great info.

If you have been rolling it around thinking about it. Wondering if it is worth it. It is definitely worth it. My 2019 2.5l 6spd 2wd Colorado wasn't bad by no means when I bought it. This tune brought my truck to life. The power. The shifting. The pedal. All of it is greatly enhanced. No doubt about it. I did a 2" leveling kit, 1 1/2" wheel spacers, front and rear hitches the same day so I can't say what economy is like. Anyways, it is not like the movies. It is not nitrous. Not like a turbo. Not like a blower. It is a factory tune. And it is above and beyond my expectations. Thank you

Best decision and upgrade I've made on my Chevy Colorado!!! The added power is definitely noticable. It's not a throw you in your seat kind of upgrade, but the shifting points are much smoother, the added torque definitely helps in towing my cargo trailer, and I've already seen a +2mpg in fuel economy in the short time I've had the tune installed. This is how the truck should perform right from the factory no question. The whole process was streamline and uploading the tune to my truck was very quick and easy. Took 15min total once the tune was downloaded on my laptop and then hooked up to my truck. Absolutely recommend this upgrade on your vehicle! You won't be disappointed!!

AMAZING! I OWN A 2010 CTS 3.6 AND AFTER THE TRIFECTA TUNING IT FEELS LIKE A NEW CAR! I DID A LOT OF RESEARCH, AND I WAS A BIT HESITANT. I DECIDED TO JUMP THE GUN, AND PURCHASE A TUNE FOR MY CTS. ITS THE BEST INVESTMENT I'VE DONE YET BESIDES THE OVER HAUL WITH NEW PART I IDID TOO MY 3.6 ENGINE. I HAVED RECOMMENDED TO A FEW OF MY FRIENDS, AND ONE HAS TAKEN MY ADVICE . I CAN TELL YOU HE'S AS PLEASED AS I AM. I HAVE'NT PAID ATTENTION TOO THE MPG DIFFERENCE BECAUSE IT'S JUST AMAZING HOW MY CTS MOVES NOW! MPG DIFFERENCE DOES'NT MATTER TO ME, IM JUST THRILLED ON HOW I CAN JUST STEP ON THE PEDAL AND GOOOOO! IF YOUR READING THIS REVIEW, I ADVICE YOU TOO MAKE THAT MOVE AND GET TUNED!! JOIN THE TRIFECTA TUNED FAMILY, YOU WON'T REGRET IT! THEIR CUSTOMER SERVICE IS AMAZINGLY PATIENT, AND VERY EDUCATIONAL.

So I have been debating the purchase ever since I bought my 2017 Malibu 2.0 Premier 3 years ago. I have to admit that I am an extreme pessimist and I half expected that everyone raving about this tune were suffering from a placebo effect (you want to believe its great so it seems great). I was wrong!! If I didn't know that the tune was installed, I would still know there is something awesomely different about the car. Biggest improvement is throttle response. It no longer feels like the car is deciding when to accelerate, it feels like I am the driver again. Every little movement of the pedal is instantly felt! Second largest improvement is power. The car doesn't hesitate to give you power anymore. Its just there when you ask for it. If you think the car was fast before, hold on!! It gets better. A big concern I had was with the 9 speed transmission and how the tune would change it. With 9 gears I was worried the tune would make it shift oddly or hard. I'm please to say that I don't notice any difference in shifting and I am glad that they haven't gone crazy making it shift hard or aggressive. Someone else said it and its true. The tune makes it a totally different car. The tune not only woke the car the he$$ up but it also pissed it off! Very happy with the tune and glad I bought it.

Bought this for my TourX. Shift patterns are way better, and at speed acceleration is far more noticeable. Definitely makes the car way more fun to drive. Worth the price and would do it again.

Easy to order, easy to download and set up. Great, quick answers to questions I had. I ordered it. It arrived. So, I dragged my feet for several days. After all, I was doing brain surgery on my baby. Finally though, I did it, connected up to my laptop, sat through the agonizing 10-15 minutes watching the progress bar. It finished, and the lights on the dash all went off and came back on. All looked normal. Turn off the key, turn it back on, start the car. The car started. I STILL HAD A CAR! 🙂 I rolled out of the driveway, down the street. Kinda .. didn't feel any different. Got out to the highway, I goosed it a little. HOLY CRAP! I got a traction warning light on the dash and about snapped my head off! I was NOT prepared for that, even though that's what I thought I was buying. Over the next couple days I played around with it. The additional performance is astounding. All this extra, right there in my Sky, but GM never activated it. And all for about a third what I was prepared to pay for the "official" GM upgrade. Don't hesitate - at least for the Saturn Sky (and of course, the Solstice GXP) this is what you need. BUY IT!

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.

Have the tune installed for the last 5 months. Cannot comment on the fuel economy since I installed the tune within a week of getting the car and installed bigger tires. I am not sure how reliable the onboard computer is, but in mixed traffic it indicates about 25mpg in average since the tune is loaded. I like how responsive the car is and the longer gears. Makes the car overall more fun to drive. Trifecta service was great since I experienced some trouble during the first load. I like that Trifecta offers continuous support and will let you know when there is an updated file available (wondering what the current August 2020 update is about).

First of all, I'm greatful that Trifecta has made this calibration at all for a vehicle that is, admittedly, rare on the road. I first got to know about Trifecta in Buick Forums, and after some considerations I decided to try it out. To be honest this is risky because the warranty will be invalidated as soon as the car goes through ECM calibration, but since the calibration for a naturally aspirated engine is reasonably conservative compared to a turbocharged, I considered the risk to be low. Each to their own, please consider the risk before purchasing anything like this. After some hundreds of dollars and a moderate wait, I'm happy to report that the vehicle now has a much more responsive driving feel. To be frank, the 20hp increase is something you'll never feel, but the overall change to the vehicle's behavior makes it feel much more nimble than stock. In normal mode, the transmission logic is similar to previous Sport mode, but the still maintains 9th gear on highways. In GS mode, the car is happy to work in the second half of the RPM range. In any mode, the throttle feeling is much better and you can almost control the gearbox using the throttle pedal. They also have a clever way to maintain the fuel economy of the car on long travels, by tying the aggressiveness with the status of cruise control. Once you arm the cruise control, the car will return to its original state (or somewhat, in my case it still feels more aggressive than original). This enables fuel consumption of around 8L/100km or lower on the highway, same level compared to stock. Beside the calibration product itself, the support team is top notch. They actually agreed to modify my calibration a little bit to include the engine stop/start functionality, which is something I personally preferred to keep. Unless anything bad happens in the long run, my review here will stand final.
