Best v6 Tune

I have an automatic v6 and when using tap shifting, you can feel the hesitation. I was wondering what method of tuning i should go to take the rev limiter and speed limiter off. I heard with tune the shifting will feel a world of difference. Any opinions, advice?

Most people here go with trifecta. You can change speed and rev limiters and for your folk with the autos, you can change the way it shifts. Maybe someone with an auto can chime in exactly what that difference is.

Trifecta Tune is Very good. One time buy and if you need a retune just do a couple of data logs send them to Vince, and he will set you up. Not including FI or Laughing gas, this cost a little more.
You can get the auto trans reset for an agressive shift
I gues the best thing is, it is a custom tune for your car.
Plus if you have a loud exhaust you can turn on the "Ghost Cam" which makes the car sound BAD A$$.

Most people go with trifecta because thats all there truly is. Theres only trifecta, hypertech, and most recently ipf. I'm still holding hope that hp tuners will release a tune for us because even though I have trifecta, I'll switch in a heartbeat

One of my buddies just got a bama tuner for his mustang and said camaro is at the very bottom of the list when it asks for model and year. I'm gonna call them to make sure before I order. He says they guarantee minimum 20hp gain just from plug in

I will differ with the majority. Get an HP dyno tune.
