1, Yes 2, You can switch it on and off so no 3, considerable notice, it turned off my speed govern, shifts different, and it turned off my cel from the header and straight pipe i put on

If not trifecta tuning what tune set up is also good for an LAP engine

 

[Jmesl8er]

If not trifecta, nothing

 

[09balt]

ok because trifecta is the only thing i know of that is best for our cars

easiest/most reccomended way is to find dealer near u get tuned= amazing. i only have a 3" intake(upgrade for ions) nd it completly changed my car atleast the throttle response plus i get 100-150 mi per tank which is an added bonus

say what? i get like 300 plus miles on highway driving with a full tank im also trifecta tuned with cai only

i think he meant 100-150 miles more.

Not that many places around here in louisiana that does tuning. To kind of think of it i dont think there is anyplace around here that does tuning. Dallas is the only place i know of

As far as I know trifecta tunes can only be hidden from the dealer on lnf

Yes^^^ mine is switched on and off by the cruise control button

 

[09balt]

So how can lnf cobalts be hidden to the dealer when it is trifecta tuned?

So how can lnf cobalts be hidden to the dealer when it is trifecta tuned?

like he said, it is hidden by having a second tune on the ecu that is triggered by a button. So Vince uses a button as an imput that tells the ECU to go back to the stock tune and hide that there is anythign else there....I dont think any other car but the ss/tc LNF can do that yet.

Though if you were to buy a second ECU you could tune it and then just swap out if you had to take it into the dealer

To bad the base models dont have that ability lmao it would make it easier

Mine is a base model

Believe 09balt was referring to the hide-a-tune portion of the program, which to my knowledge is only available on the LNF. The switchable tune is available on any I believe.

Switchable tune is the hide a tune. When I turn off my cruise, it turns off my tune, which can't be detected by the dealer

jmesl8er i also have a base model too and your telling me that we also have the same thing as the lnf models
