TRIFECTA presents: Chevrolet Silverado / GMC Sierra (Gen V V8, 5.3L, 6.2L) MY2014--2018+ Powertrain Calibration Reprogramming (flash tune)
 
TRIFECTA is pleased to announce the immediate availability of the 2014--2018 Chevrolet Silverado / 2019 Silverado LD and 2014--2018 GMC Sierra / 2019 Sierra Limited vehicle software recalibration (reflash) for vehicles utilizing either the 5.3L V8 or the 6.2L V8 with either the 8 speed automatic transmission (8L90 / RPO:M5U) or the 6 speed automatic transmission (6L80 / RPO:MYC). Two wheel drive (2WD), four wheel drive (4WD) and all wheel drive (AWD) variants are supported. Specific gains over factory calibration are up to (uncorrected) 45lb-ft of torque and 19 horsepower with no vehicle modifications beyond the updated software calibration.
 
TRIFECTA's 2014--2018 / 2019 Limited full size truck recalibration is complimented by a fully developed 6-speed or 8-speed (depending on application) automatic transmission calibration to support the increased power delivery profile and to offer dramatically improved driving characteristics from everyday driving maneuvers to towing and hauling. The complete powertrain calibration also includes ESC (Stabilitrak) and, for four/all wheel drive (4WD/AWD) equipped models, TCCM (transfer case control module) program enhancements.
 
All 2014--2018 / 2019 Limited full size truck calibrations also include TRIFECTA's exclusive "tri-mode" DSVM (driver selectable vehicle modes). Choose between TRIFECTA Sport mode, tow/haul mode, or ECO mode, on the fly using existing vehicle controls (see full details below).
 
Specifications of the TRIFECTA Performance 2014--2018 / 2019 Limited full size truck ECM software reprogramming:
 
-Fuel economy is improved (up to 2.4MPG observed), dependent on fuel grade and driving conditions
-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
-Return to stock functionality included with flash loader
-Full flex-fuel / E85 features retained
-Tested on all available grades of fuel (87, 89, 91, 92, and 93 octane) and ethanol blends from 10% to 85%

TRIFECTA Performance Active Fuel Management (PAFM) 
 
The L83 offers V8/V4 mode. GM has succeeded in making V8/V4 transitions (AFM, or Active Fuel Management as GM calls it) extremely smooth, such that in most cases they can't be noticed. However, some customers may have exhaust or other modifications that cause the truck to produce an undesirable exhaust note while in V4 mode. TRIFECTA exclusively offers three options with regard to adjusting AFM parameters with this product:
AFM available/active in all drive modes (default) AFM disabled in Sport mode AFM disabled entirely
Specifications of the TRIFECTA Performance 2014--2018 / 2019 Limited full size truck 6-Speed / 8-Speed automatic transmission TCM calibration software reprogramming:
 
-Added vehicle drive modes (TF Sport, tow/haul, and stock)
-Improved shift times in adverse shift patterns
-Improved shift logic - shifts are progressive and purposeful
-Does not shorten transmission life or increase cooling requirements
-Retains all OE diagnostics and TCM functionality
-Retains all OE error code reporting and functionality
 
Supplementary Featureset of the TRIFECTA Performance 2014--2018 / 2019 Limited full size truck powertrain calibration software reprogramming:
 
-TRIFECTA Interactive Driver Selectable Vehicle Mode (Select-a-Tune MKII):
 
-Cruise System Armed = ECO
-Cruise System Disarmed = Sport
-Tow/Haul = TRIFECTA Enhanced Tow/Haul Mode (Overrides Cruise System Selection)
 
-TRIFECTA ECO Mode: Up to 2.4 MPG improvement by dedicated TRIFECTA ECO mode prioritizing fuel economy in engine calibration profile and transmission shift strategy
-Alternative Driver Profiles layout included with individualized calibration
-TRIFECTA Octane Adaptive MKII featureset will bias for lower octane fuels (multi dimensional airflow knock and timing decay tables, not just high/low)
-Improved fuel economy while towing with alternative TOW/HAUL mode
Installation Notes:
 
-Estimated installation time of ~20 minutes
-Premium fuel is recommended for maximum power output, but not required
 
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
- 5.3L hybrid applications using the ‘R’ VIN code (RPO L8B) are not supported.
 
The TRIFECTA Advantage+ Calibration is meant for vehicles that have modified final drive ratios and/or tire swaps. With this product, customers can request calibration adjustments to correct speedometer / shifting problems introduced by changing front/rear axle gear ratios and/or tire sizes.


  • 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.

  • Enter GPS reading when Speedometer reads 60mph

    Leave blank for no adjustment

    e.g. Enter 62 if your GPS reads 62mph when your dash reads 60mph


    For vehicles with aftermarket wheels and tires. Actual Speed (per GPS device) when Speedometer Indicates 60mph

    Larger numbers mean larger-than-stock tires, Smaller numbers mean smaller-than-stock tires.

    Requests for raising of speed limiter require photographic evidence of speed rating on tire sidewall, submitted via Support Request.


  • (e.g. 4.10, 4.56, etc)

Recently modified my 2018 Silverado LT 4x4 with a 6in BDS Coilover Lift,  35" Toyo Open Country R/T, Gibson Sport performance Exhaust, and Yukon 4.56 Gears.  Was looking for a solution to recalibrate speedometer and this took care of that plus more.  It brought the life back into the truck.  Sport mode is fun but obviously sacrifices fuel economy.  Eco mode is very smooth but still has great acceleration.  Definitely worth the money.

Firstly, this company is phenominal! The customer service and quick response is worth the tune hands down. Secondly, the power i get from sport mode never ceases to amaze me. From a dead stop I can disable traction control and punch the accelerator in sport mode to lose myself a little tread. Additionally, my truck has the Bi-Modal engine which means while cruising it hits 4 cyl regularly and will sometimes shift back and forth to 8 cylinders and 4 cylinders to save on either power or fuel economy. This presents a few problems. On the stock setup the truck tended to have an occasional "Hard shift", which means that if it was going back into 8 cyl mode at the same time as the transmission was shifting gears you might think someone just bumped you from behind. It was truly a HARD shift. I have also seen a lot of discussion about the bi-modal setup being hard on the oil pump and more specifically causing the vehicle to burn oil later in it's lifecycle. To remedy all of these issues i asked a representative if they could tune my truck to NEVER go into 4 cyl mode. They did and man i have to tell you, what a difference it has made. Im talking no more hard shifts, no more lag between acceleration when in 4 cyl mode. Plus the fuel economy has only been effected by coming down from about 16.5-17 mpg to 16 mpg. The 4 cyl mode just wasn't worth it in my opinion. However the Trifecta Tune I purchased has REALLY been worth the price and I couldn't be happier. I just wish I could get a little sticker or decal for my back window. For sure worth the purchase. If you are on the fence, get this one!

Worth Every Penny

This tune is worth the money for the improved 6-speed transmission performance alone. Shift speed and timing is greatly improved (without being harsh) and the low speed shift pattern is much more logical- no more surging in stop and go traffic. I can also feel a marked power increase with better throttle response at any speed and less interference from torque management. Before, the stock ECU seemed to slowly ramp up power when I hit the gas, now the power is instantly on. The truck even runs and sounds better in v4 mode, something I didn't expect. Gas mileage is the same as before the tune. I didn't want to sacrifice the truck's decent mileage for more power and it turns out I didn't have to. I'm completely happy with the tune and highly recommend it.
