2013--2015 Chevrolet Malibu / 2016 Malibu Limited - 2.5L - Advantage
This release post is a presentation of the software engineering capabilities of TRIFECTA Performance: TRIFECTA presents a complete powertrain power delivery profile recalibration for the MY2013+ Chevrolet Malibu LCV/LKW engine and corresponding 6T45 automatic transmission reprogramming. The TRIFECTA Performance Chevrolet Malibu 2.5L LCV/LWK MY2013+ powertrain calibration is an easy to install software performance recalibration with an included flash loader device that will yield gains of up to +25 ft-lbs @ 6500 RPM and +35 WHP @ 6500 RPM (Peak vs peak gains of up to +1 ft-lbs and +6 WHP) to a completely stock Chevrolet Malibu 2.5 (LCV/LKW) MY2013+.
Specifications of the TRIFECTA Performance Chevrolet Malibu MY2013+ 2.5 (LCV/LKW) ECM software reprogramming:
-Gains of up to +25 ft-lbs @ 6500 RPM and +35 WHP @ 6500 RPM under the curve (Peak vs peak gains of up to +1ft-lb and +6 WHP)
-Powertrain calibration has been tested and validated for various environments, such as cold/heat, elevation, and variations in fuel quality
-Power feels linear and immediately responsive (improved drivability and throttle attentiveness)
-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
-The TRIFECTA flash loader and Transparency featureset does not increment the ECM write counter or increment entries in the flash history
-Return to stock functionality included with flash loader
-”Autostop” feature permanently disabled
Specifications of the TRIFECTA Performance MY2013+ Chevrolet Malibu 6T45 6-Speed automatic transmission TCM calibration software reprogramming:
-Supplementary 6T45 transmission TCM reprogramming compliments the ECM reprogramming and completes the TRIFECTA Powertrain Calibration: designed to work in unison with the ECM reprogramming for optimized performance
-Improved shift times in adverse shift patterns
-Improved shift logic (improved drivability)
-Does not shorten transmission life or increase cooling requirements
-Retains all OE diagnostics and TCM functionality
-Retains all OE error code reporting and functionality
-Improved fuel economy with improvements made to torque converter slip profiles
Installation Notes:
-Estimated installation time of ~20 minutes
-Premium fuel is recommended for maximum power output, but not required
2.5 LKW dyno graph (on 91 octane pump gas) (this vehicle is a 2014 Chevrolet Malibu with a 2.5 LKW engine) - stock wheels/tires
Additional information and availability:
- This powertrain calibration includes a TRIFECTA powertrain calibration file specific to your vehicle and includes a flash loader device
- Powertrain calibrations currently exist for North American vehicles only, with more regions to follow
- The TRIFECTA Advantage Calibration is designed for a 100% stock vehicle. Any aftermarket hardware designed to work on a stock vehicle may work without issue, but there is no official support for it with this calibration.
