How does the trifecta tune feel, net you any changes in your gas consumption

 

[doreo]

oh hell ya. its worth the tune just for the tranny tune. when we did the flash for some reason the ecm didnt flash and only the tcm did and we thought the gain was the full flash. got the ecm tune in and man this baby is fun. with the 93 fuel and tune on a power tune i get about 25.5 to 26 mpg city which is good imo as the thing is rated that high and i drive like a race car lol. the car picked up aprox 12 or so hp if i remember right on the tune didnt dyno it so we went off a lose # increase.

Nice suttle mods you have doreo. Engine bay looks good!

 

[doreo]

the tune didnt add as much hp and tq due to it being an auto so no boost lvls to increase. it may be more but like i said no dyno so it was all off airflow math or w/e vince got it from.

Nice, in my second favorite color. Vic red is the best though

 

[doreo]

vic red with chrome may look cool but i had to have this color, i could not have this car with any other color besides mebe the sema matte black/lime green. further mods on the inside done this weekend will post pics when done

 

[doreo]

Doreo how did you change the Bow Tie and steering wheel colors. Applique or paint?

 

[Bald Nurse]

OOPS is that posted in the right place???

 

[doreo]

its a sticker

 

[doreo]

its a sticker If you go to the diy side of the forums i just took the idea of changing the outside bow ties and used it every place i didnt like the color, better then my skills at paint and alot easier to bring back to stock
