What im curious of is where are they getting the stock tune from? I know when i owned hp tuners for my ss turbo, i had to pull a copy of the stock tune off and save it in a safe place for when i want to revert back. My fear is that the stock tune they are sending really isnt the stock tune at all, there for the real stock tune thats on the car will be gone forever.

This right here. I went back to stock tune and still had a rough idle... unless would that be from having forge BOV on stock tune? Either way I was wondering the same, is the an authentic stock tune or is the Trifecta memicing what they know of the stock tune.

The car sees the BOV as a vacuum leak on stock tune. The maf meters how much air is being sucked past it into the intake and sends the right amount of fuel to the cylinders. When you go *Wooosh* that's air the car thinks it still has being sent into the atmosphere instead of the cylinder or bypass back into the intake. The car sends too much fuel to the cylinder running it rich. BOV you still have installed will only cause you issues until you get a tune for it.

Hello Guys,

I'd like to clear up the 'stock tune' questions. As you all are aware, every single North American Cruze 1.4t ships with the exact same ECM programming intended for that model year Cruze.

We simply include the original OE programming that was already on your Cruze, in the calibration file we send you. That file contains both our custom Trifecta calibration as well as the Stock OE calibration.

When you flash the Stock profile, you are just writing the original GM programming back on to the ECM/TCM. It's pristine, untouched by us. If you did this with any modifications still installed, then you might trigger a code here or there simply because the stock programming cant account for the changes.

We aren't mimicking anything, nor modifying it in any way. It really is that simple. You're just flashing the stock programming for the ECM/TCM back on there. That's all.

No mystery. No hocus pocus or voodoo going on

Please let me know if you have any other questions. I will be happy to reply to a PM or here in this thread as time permits.

Thanks,
Michael

Just to update on this-

BNR has been following along the entire way, and forwarding all concerns to Trifecta. We are a reseller of their product, we can't change anything about it, we only sell it as provided by the manufacturer. We were told by Trifecta that they would have a WOT representative come on here for support, and technical assistance, and they've done that. We have fulfilled all orders in a timely manner and have responded to everyone that has PM'd or emailed us directly with the utmost urgency. Customer satisfaction is extremely important to us, we don't want a single customer to have a bad experience. I am confident that WOT and Trifecta are doing their best to work with each individual that has been in contact with them, either through [email protected] or BNR directly.

BNR has been a CruzeTalk site sponsor since the site first opened, which says a lot since we are the biggest Cruze forum on the internet. During that time, BNR has done business with honesty and integrity.

For this round of group buy purchases, contact Jerry if you have any questions regarding the sale of the tunes, and contact WOT Tuning if you have any technical questions regarding your Trifecta tune. This will keep breaks in communication to a minimum and will ensure that the issues get resolved as quickly as possible.

What makes a great company is not whether or not they always produce a flawless product, but whether or not they work as hard as one can expect them to in order to make sure all issues are addressed in a timely manner. I see both BNR and WOT Tuning doing that here, so as the admin of CruzeTalk.com, I'm asking everyone to have some patience and allow the parties involved to resolve any issues that come up. Please use the proper channels to discuss any issues that may arise.

Thank you for your cooperation.
