Trifecta tune or Dyno tune? - Page 2 - Camaro5 Chevy Camaro Forum / Camaro ZL1, SS and V6 Forums

Guys any of the reseller's of Trifecta can do data logging for you or should do for you if you buy a tune from them...

The tune that Vince is selling is a good tune. If you look at the SLP 327 you will see that the tune, Axel back exhaust, and CAI are now up to 327HP so if we start at 312..to get gains of 15HP for CAI 350, Axel back exhaust 500-700 +, Tune for 400+ so if you add it up 1250.00-1500+ or -. So you have to decide is 100 per HP a good investment to you?

If I was closer I could at least show you my car or drive it to compare. It defiantly has some more seat HP in my eyes!

With longtubes, intake and exhaust, the tune is a good idea. Of course, it isn't needed, but then again, I don't want to live with a CEL either, lol..

If you aren't doing any mods, don't do the tune. If you are going to mod the car, and take it to a strip, road course, tune it. While you won't gain much in the way of horsepower, I think I picked up 6rwhp and 2ft-lb of torque, it will optimize the tranny, for the auto guys, and keep your air/fuel inline as well as timing. The tranny tune is worth it,IMO, if you are going to play with the car, lol.

Okay guys, with my cat-back exhaust (solo), Injen CAI, and Doug Thorley shorty headers do you think a tune is a good idea for me??

Since you put in the CAI, a tune is definite good idea. You want to make sure that Air/fuel mixture is right on, not too lean not too rich.
