Questions about tuning

1343 Views 9 Replies 7 Participants Last post by  hificruzer226
Hey guys, I apologize if these questions have been answered before. I tried to search for them but didn't find anything.

My first question is what is the difference between the different tunes? I have seen trifecta, bullydog, BNR...but I don't understand the differences. Is the difference just in the tune itself? Or is it a different device being used to upload it as well?

Second, where should I order the tune from? I looked on trifectaperformance website, and they sell the trifecta tune for $300. Does that include everything I will need to do the tune? Does it come with datalogging and future updates?

Thanks for your help ya'll, and if I messed something up with this post please let me know! It's my first post :)

I believe it is the tune & the hand held tuner & cable is needed. You need to look at the big 3 tunes for this car BNR V tuner trifecta good luck & welcome to the forum

So all of these will come with the hand held tuner and cable included? Or is that seperate? Also, I see Jerry from BNR post about both BNR tune and the Trifecta tune. Is he involved with both of these tunes?

You can come to us directly for your TRIFECTA calibration :)
Here is a few more questions.... specific to 2015 Eco 6m, with the goal of maximizing fuel efficiently.

I see nice graphs show gains above 2500 RPM, What if any, are the gains available in the 1000 to 2500 RPM cruising range? How can those gains be achieved on a stock engine?

What resources and options are available for me to manipulate within the program, parameters and or tune once I finally invest in the correct equipment, and tune? examples, DFCO, fan control, shutter control, charge control, in motion idle control, rev hang ( or whatever is causing that, not that I get it often)

Can new inputs be installed and programmed in?

just in case anybody is wondering consistent 1200 Km's per tank range is not enough for me and my bid is to exceed 1312 Km's.

I log nearly all available parameters on Torque Pro, with 47000 Km's of data stored, if that is helpful for discussion.

Maybe I will if you answer the questions you quoted! :question:

Most tunes are for WOT and shift points if you have an auto, as well as WOT delay delete and a few other things. The real difference between tunes are the VE tables, Boost and afrs at diff KPA and RPM. In the cruze community there is not a lot of discussion of this.
