as for what i said about not feeling gains i retract those comments it was simply not loaded Properly. it does have noticeable gains but now has that one random shifting issue.

so to clear things up because maybe they didnt understand my question. trifecta can tune to a larger turbo?
Yes, they can. Preferably, their in-house T40 Turbo they source from a German company specifically for our car called Mach5. These turbos have a larger compressor and turbine wheel in a milled out stock housing.

The only thing I can think of as to why they wouldn't remote tune a different turbo or larger turbo, is the possibility of blowing up your engine especially on stock rods and pistons. Also, I'm no Wook Wook, but I'd imagine trying to do the initial full pulls on a stock tune or even their canned tune with a way larger turbo would be catastrophic. It would probably be a nightmare going back and forth a million times trying to get it right remotely. I'm not saying it can't be done, just sketchy doing it remotely and not in-person on their dyno.

They are not new to high hp ecotec engines. The owner Vince, has a 500hp 2.0T Camaro in the shop with a bunch of one off custom made parts and an EFR 7670 turbo.

What are your hp goals? What are you wanting to do with the car? Drag race? Auto-X? Track night? Street racing?
