2014--2017 Buick Regal - 2.0L Turbo - AdvantageI purchased this tune a little while ago, and I'm utterly blown away by it. I was on the fence for quite some time (like...6 months), going back and forth on whether or not I should buy it. But let me tell you, I couldn't be happier that I did. The power change is nothing short of incredible. It really comes on in second gear--the car just pulls and pulls and the tires break free shamefully easily. After buying it, the confidence I have in my car's abilities has skyrocketed. Sure, it's great fun on long open stretches, but the peace of mind that comes with knowing you can pull away from pretty much anything short of a sports car is quite satisfying. If you're considering buying it, my strong opinion is that you should. This tune is a little pricier than others on the market, but I went with Trifecta because they seemed to me to be the most professional about their craft. I have no problem paying a bit more to get a product that I'm confident in, especially when it comes to something that could be damaging to the overall function of my car. However, after installing it, the car started right up and I've had zero issues with anything so far. The one thing I haven't noticed is the increase in mileage. Now, perhaps it's because I've only been driving it for a week or so, but my mileage has stayed the same (and no, it's not because I've been lead-footing it). Haven't had the car on a dyno to see the numbers behind the increase, but I'm not too much into that considering this is just my daily. But the sheer feeling of being in the driver's seat is enough for me. Fantastic product, fast shipping, SUPER easy to install. Fantastic work, Trifecta.Submitted 04-09-2019 by AT118 in Testimonials -
2012--2016 Cadillac SRX - 3.6L - AdvantageThe Trifecta tune improves drivability and makes the car much more fun to drive. The transmission recalibration is perfect... Stock transmission was slow and stupid, I had actually taken it to the dealer because I thought there was something wrong with it.... So much better now!Submitted 31-08-2019 by bdebde in Testimonials -

2014--2015 Chevrolet Malibu / 2016 Malibu Limited - 2.5L - AutoStop Delete OnlySmall Town Dealership Review Here. We had sold a 2014 Malibu with AutoStop system. It was stumbling to restart once it had Autostopped. Quick and easy to install with laptop. Download and Go! Worked Great!! Highly recommend to anyone needing to fix an issue with their autostop system to delete the annoying feature! The Delete worked good for this customer.Would by again if needed. Thanks Trifecta!Submitted 28-08-2019 by David Fox in Testimonials -
2012--2016 Chevrolet Traverse - 3.6L - AdvantageAwesome product and tune! Totally changed low end power along with stronger shifts (fun to drive now!) I have not seen a big improvement in MPG, but I am not one to drive for efficiency. There have not been any issues to report. I tow a 3500lb camper with the 2016 Traverse (factory towing package). I can hardly tell the camper is behind me. One thing I will say is the towing MPG has improved by 2 MPG due to the extra power. No more unnecessary high revs to pass and go uphill. Thanks again Trifecta. I will recommend your products to anyone with a GM vehicle.Submitted 27-08-2019 by ryant in Testimonials -
2017--2018+ Chevrolet Colorado - 3.6L - Advantage+Spectacular!! That's the only way to explain the Trifecta tune. I bought the mid level tune mainly for the tire size calibration. The tune itself was worth it the way it freed up power. Now the truck can get out of it's own way. Super easy to install, great customer service. I'd def recommend this to anyone. 2019- v6, mbrp exhaust, flowmaster cai, 5.5" zone lift, 33" AT3W. 16700 mi.Submitted 21-08-2019 by Jeremy A in Testimonials -

2017--2018+ Chevrolet Colorado - 3.6L - Advantage+I installed the tune this morning, left work and drove all over town. Here are my views on the Trifecta Chevrolet Colorado - 3.6L - Advantage+ for my 2019 ZR2. The setup was super easy, I got the tuner 4 days after ordering it. Next, I sent my ECM code that the tuner read. I got my tune in a matter of hours. I was ready to install it. Not knowing how long the flashing process was, I plugged in a trickle charger I had laying around my home to make sure I didn't experience any power outages. To be honest, it was overkill as the flash took 5 minutes tops. Install complete! I was so excited to turn the motor on and drive it. My first impression was the throttle is so much more responsive. Gone are the days, I would squish a sponge waiting for the engine to get the signal on a 56k dial-up modem saying go. The response and the additional powers are night and day difference to the point where you need to re-learn the pedal response as you look like a jack ass burning out trying to park lol. On the freeway the downshifts are quick and the torque is so readily available that your traction control kicks in and throttles you down when you mash the throttle. In a 0-60 situation, I feel the 41LB lb-ft torque on my butt dyno through the mid RPM band, and the 10whp up top. The engine sounds meaner and has enough power to get you going no matter the RPM and gear you are in. All this was done in the sport mode. In the economy mode, you feel the same thing, but it is tamed down, and your revs don't go up as high. But let us keep it real. I want to set the expectation clear. While everything above is correct. Don't set your expectations too high. This will not light up your tires in a cloud of smoke down the highway. Also, you may or may not feel the extra power. What you do experience is simply better drivability. The car comes alive and is more fun to drive, the throttle response is instant. I wouldn't even consider a pedal commander after this tune. The shifts are fast and smooth. It downshifts into the perfect gear and doesn't struggle to find the right gear. To put it simply, the cars not lazy anymore. As a gearhead, I have to give credit to Trifecta. I've owned and tuned multiple performance and daily drivers. From the new model, Mustang GT's to a BMW 550 V8 Biturbo. This is the first time I genuinely enjoy daily driving the car even more. I feel that not only did Trifecta tune this car for more power. But they completely redid the engine mapping to make this truck more fun to drive. I am thrilled with my purchase, and I highly recommend it to anyone who is considering one. -June 24, 2018Submitted 02-08-2019 by armond.ohan in Testimonials -
2017--2018+ Chevrolet Colorado - 3.6L - EliteMy 2019 Colorado bone stock had plenty of go but it felt heavy in town and tight traffic. I figured I would give Trifecta a try. I have never tried a tune in any of my vehicles before. I ordered the AFM disabled in sport mode. After the I installed the tune I hooked up my 21ft. aluminum boat. I didn't notice much but then again it towed well with no problems stock. I then tried the standard setting and noticed the shift points were a bit more aggressive. I then enabled the sport mode and OMG!!!!. I can not believe that 28 HP and 40 Ft LBS of torque can make that big of a difference. If your thinking about it do it.Submitted 29-07-2019 by wsnyder in Testimonials -
2014+ Cadillac CTS VSport - 3.6L Twin TurboLet me start off by saying prior to the Trifecta this car is a beast, after the Trifecta it's a beast on steroids. The tune is easy to install, I've had it on my vehicle for a year know and I've had ZERO problems with the car. The customer service is excellent hands down!!! If you are looking to beef up your VSport Trifecta is the only option I would select.Submitted 29-07-2019 by ralbright33 in Testimonials -
2011--2015 Chevrolet Cruze / 2016 Cruze Limited - 1.4L Turbo EliteWas tuned by another major cruze company. Had constant overboost issues with other companys tune. Switched to trifecta and turns out my old tuner couldnt tune for the forge wga. My old tune put down 157hp and 191tq. My trifecta tune elite tune put down 171hp and 211tq. Would highly recommend to any cruze owner. Car is so Pleasant to drive now not having to worry about a bad tune. Tune feels so much refined from my old tune. Mods are ported intake, forge wga, catless 2.5 exhaust and trifecta tune. There no lift shift option is also fun for pulls. 5/5 stars. Any GM car i buy now will be trifecta tuned.Submitted 28-07-2019 by Dylan1303 in Testimonials -
2013--2018+ Chevrolet Trax / Tracker - 1.4L TurboSo far so good. I installed the tune and spoke to a few nice people who have helped through some issues. The forge wastegate we very simple to install also. The Trax launches hard. Can't wait until I get to install more parts on it!Submitted 28-07-2019 by dksdrum in Testimonials -
2013--2018+ Chevrolet Trax / Tracker - 1.4L TurboI received and installed my Trifecta tune software a couple of weeks ago. What an awesome product! Installation was a breeze. Directions were easy to follow and software update was quickly installed. Performance is fantastic. I'm enjoying the power upgrade quite a bit! The only other upgrade on the car is a K&N air filter element. Nothing else is needed. Car has 18" wheels and P215/55R18 94H Continental ContiProContact tires. I'm very pleased with your product and service. First time I've ever added so much performance without even getting my hands dirty. Thanks for offering such a great product. I have and will continue to recommend your company to friends. Mike Marvin Northwoods, NJSubmitted 27-07-2019 by bluesguy in Testimonials -
2016--2018+ Chevrolet Cruze / Cruze Hatch - 1.4L Turbo AdvantageTuned my 2018 Cruze Hatch, Auto Trans with the Turbo Advantage calibration. Car was kind of fun to drive before but was really lacking in throttle response and acceleration. After flashing the tune it feels like a completely different car... Feels more comparable to GM's 2.0T, obviously not as much power but almost as fun to drive. The torque doesn't feel like it dies off after 4000rpm like with the stock calibration and the transmission seems far less confused. Now it's always in the right gear at the right time. This tune on a car that weighs less than 3000lbs makes for a fun daily! Would recommend to anyone who is considering Trifecta.Submitted 19-07-2019 by MikeWeso in Testimonials -
2017--2018+ Chevrolet Colorado - 3.6L - EliteI bought my father an Elite tune from Trifecta for his Colorado. I installed an intake, and catback and needed a good tune to finish it off. This thing is a beast now with some 93 octane in the tank. Even with just 87 octane, the difference is substantial. The transmission performs more predictably, and enjoyably now too. You don’t realize just how conservatively tuned these trucks are until Trifecta gets their hands on them. BUY THIS TUNE GUYS.Submitted 16-07-2019 by Robert Bonzani in Testimonials -
2017--2018+ Chevrolet Colorado - 3.6L - AdvantageI have two parts to my review. Customer Service: Ordered the base Advantage as I knew for a fact I would never be doing any lift, or tire size upgrade. EZ flash cable arrived quickly with the program a few days behind that. Having done a similar upgrade to my 2007 Nissan Frontier with a Bully Dog I was familier with the procedure and had my truck in center of garage to keep it (and laptop) out of the direct sun outside. Laptop hooked up to power, battery charger on truck going through simple install procedure. Download got to 75% complete and then.....stopped. Tried to re start the download, no luck. Truck wouldn't start either. Naturally in a panic I put in a request for customer support and was lucky enough to work with Steven who promptly told me not to worry. Of course I did because we were going into the July 4th weekend. Thinking the EZ flash cable was the issue he overnighted another cable which didn't help. To make a long story short, the issue ended up being with my laptop. For some unknown reason it lost the connection and was unable to re connect not matter what. I then used my Surface 4 tablet after downloading a specific Windows program (as noted on Trifectas website with link) and download completed in just a couple of minutes and truck started just fine. Point of this specific customer service review was that Steven stuck with me the whole time, and I'm sure could tell I was frustrated more so than most customers that call for tech support. He was super quick to get back to me, and quick to send out additional download cable along with a follow up call. Product review: While my truck has less that 10,000 miles on it, it's like a whole new truck! Now it's FUN to drive as well. I ordered my truck and I ordered it with the factory performance package which includes the Cold Air Intake and exhaust. The Trifecta tune keeps the RPM's in a tighter power band it seems so the tone of the exhaust is much more noticeable in a pleasant way. I have more usable power on demand simply by the transmission making better use of itself in it's shifts without hunting around for gears all the time. Easily one of the best things I could have bought for my truck. Scott Shaeffer Omaha, NESubmitted 11-07-2019 by Scott Shaeffer in Testimonials -
2014+ Chevrolet Impala - 3.6L - AdvantageOnly wish I installed it sooner. I have a 2014 Impala with the V6. I have a home made cold air intake installed after my factory air tube tore. It really didn't do to much except maybe wide open throttle . But it does sound nice. But after I installed the tune what a different car. It almost completely removed any throttle lag. The car just picks up and goes. I love it. The only problem . It's my wife's car so I very rarely drive it. But now I can't wait . Great product.Submitted 09-07-2019 by xsquid in Testimonials -
2011--2015 Chevrolet Cruze / 2016 Cruze Limited - 1.8L EliteThis tune should be a mandatory upgrade for all 1.8L Chevy Cruze. The throttle response compared to stock is incredible and the car pulls so much harder from about 2500 rpm and beyond. I am completely satisfied with trifecta and their services. Flashing the tune was easier then a hand held tuner. I wish they had a product for my other vehicles.Submitted 09-07-2019 by Caveman in Testimonials -
2016--2018+ Chevrolet Cruze / Cruze Hatch - 1.4L Turbo AdvantageAll I can say is WOW!! This was money well spent. While this tune is not meant to make the Cruze a race car, it certainly woke it up. The performance is a VERY noticeable improvement. This tune even resolved the majority of the (auto) transmission "chugging" and the shifts are precise. Under hard acceleration, the motor stays in the power curve and passing, even at highway speeds is effortless, as well as just merging into traffic. You don't need to second guess if you're going to make it or not (just use common sense). Overall, I'm super impressed, and the fuel mileage is still awesome. Stop reading all the reviews and JUST DO IT, you won't regret it. BTW, Installation is a snap too.Submitted 08-07-2019 by Mike Mondello in Testimonials -
2011--2013 Buick Regal - 2.0L Turbo - AdvantagePurchased the advantage tune in August of 2018 and purposely waited to write this review. This is some of the best money that I have spent for my 2013 GS. Since I installed the tune the car has had much better performance and I’ve also noticed much better fuel economy this tune is definitely worth the money.Submitted 19-06-2019 by Flightkid in Testimonials
