Tune, ported TB, 4.10's, 33's intake/exhaust, fr and rr suspension. 24-25 hiway at 55-60, 20-22 at 65-75. In town it's 11-16 depending on my right foot. With the mods the truck is a blast to drive. I run in eco mode most of the time.
I get great city mpg, but my highway is never more than 21-22 mpg? I have K&N polished intake. Soler Ported TB. Trifecta Tune. (Flowmaster 50 Muffler only). Do you think a cat back would give me better mpg? (I have RC 2in level kit too)
Your video motivated me to take advantage of Trifecta’s Black Friday sale. Just download the Advantage + tune for my Colorado ZR2. Super impressed with the tune.
Dustin I have followed you ever since I received my Zr2. In sport in nj I with tune I hit about 16 around town. About 19 in economy. But no matter what the tune made me.love thus truck even more!!!! Alaska alot more fun it looks then jersey for thus truck!!!!
Thanks for following. We appreciate the support. That’s not bad 16mpg around town in a tuned truck. We do love it here in Alaska. There’s so much to do with this truck out here.
right on. i have the tune, 4.56 gears, 255/80r17 wildpeak at3w with a wraith exhaust. i have an unfortunate commute of 30 miles each way in the sf bay area. i can still squeak out a 21ish mpg. i never saw the v4 before the tune. i also have the tune for some 34X10.50/17 super swampers and get similar mpg. the power is a noticeable thing for each tune as well. it's awfully nice of your wife to let you drive the truck dustin.
Put the tune on my ZR2 after upping tires to the 285/70r17 mickey thompson baja boss at's, E rated. Was kinda regretting that decision because truck was noticeably slower and felt sluggish everywhere. After the tune and the bigger tires, it felt substantially better than stock with stock tire size. Best upgrade for the money spent but this is how it should have been from the factory.
There are 3 levels that you can purchase. I got the advantage plus because I changed my tire size. It was around $495 when I purchased. The check engine light was on because the engine wasn’t running. The check engine light isn’t on with this tune. Thanks for watching. Hope this helps.
28 extra horse and 41 extra lb-ft torque would be really nice in my ZR2. I wonder if they'll have this Trifecta tune available for the new 2023 Turbo 4 cylinder engine.. which will already have significantly more torque than my 2022. Would be so sweet to have a really overpowered/fast ZR2
Great content Dustin. I appreciate you sharing your mods I have followed suit with a few of them. I am wondering what your Warranty situation is and does this tune detectable by the dealership even if you revert back to stock?
Thanks for the support. So, I can only speak from personal experience. My truck is still under warranty. I’ve had it in for one warranty issue. An oil cooler line busted. I’ve tuned every vehicle I’ve owned and I just return it to stock before taking it into the dealer. It’s never been an issue.
The dealer is not going to dig deep at looking for evidence of a tune unless you have a catastrophic engine failure. I have had 1 warranty repair completed (Trans flush) with the tune installed and dealer didn't comment on it.
Thank you, Dustin. I recently commented on your new video considering possible mods such as a snorkel. I am now researching and thinking of getting the Trifecta tune for my ZR2 after your video. I wonder about your (and everyone else's) opinion on if you should get the mods or the Trifecta tune first. I already have the snorkel and 33's, but was considering others. My mpg has definitely taken a hit after the 33's (and snorkel), and would like to get some of it back rather than faster performance.
i have a 2020 Colorado ZR2 V6 i get about 13-15 mpg, I've been looking for a tune for my truck but I'm also told that i might have to send my ecu in to unlock it before i can tune it. don't know how true that is but it was a big price difference, also does this also do anything to the speed limiter?
It’s not 100% Accurate as is doesn’t account for light timing and the truck will roll around 5-10 mph before the app catches up. (It should add 2-3 seconds for delay) most likely around 12.5 trifecta/ 15.5 stock. Makes sense as 0-60 is about 0.7 seconds faster. The Hp/Trq is through the power band.
Damn would be nice to get that much power and fuel increase. I barely get 19 mpg and i drive on the highway 85% of the time. Does this void the warranty?
Been thinking a long time about getting this tune, but didn’t know if it was worth it. After watching this maybe I will. I already have a Mallet full exhaust on mine which is very expensive, but is well worth the money. After install I have been getting about 21.5 for about 2 years now and the power increase is very noticeable, about 11
Nice, I was looking at mallet but they had a huge wait when I was in the market and I got impatient haha. They sound awesome though. We’re really happy with the tune. We’re getting a little worse gas mileage now cause I’m taking off quick from every stop haha 😆
I have a tune on mines and v4 mode is turned off and the avg mpg in stop and go traffic does not go below 19 mpg and on the factory tune the torque converter locks in the lower rpm and the torque converter staying locked decreases the gas mileage by a lot and that now when I'm coasting the rpms drop to idle speed instead of staying between 1500 to 2500 and has the power of a v6 mustang and v6 challenger and has no mods under the hood
@@DustinFaddis Yes and it also got the 19 in city driving hauling some furniture and I filled up with e85 from half a tank and with that same tune it got 35 to 40 mpg but I working on it to get more power and mpg with the e85 since it got 35 to 40 mpg
@@DustinFaddis I have one of those laptop tuners and the tune I'm running now is to run on e85 and the fuel mileage is better then stock but not very high or that it can't calculate the mileage for e85 that I be seeing the fuel gauge be moving back up but the 0-60 is like 6 seconds that it has the power of a v6 mustang camaro and challenger
I actually have 2 questions how do you return to stock and I received 4 download files how do I know which one to pick because I see you had 5 did you have to download all 5?
I added a K&N cool air intake last year and a Flowmaster FX exhaust on this past weekend. Now it sounds like a pissed off bumble bee🤣 I hooked up a Pedal Commander this morning but am not impressed. I have been looking at this tune for a while but was not sure which one to order of the 3 on the website. I do not have any other mods and I took the Pedal Commander off because I was not feeling comfortable with it. Any suggestions?
Really the tubes are the same. They only thing that changes is the availability to do upgrades later. If you’re not changing wheel and tire size go with the cheapest
I’m not impressed with the transmission changes. It’s alright in sport mode but not perfect. And in eco mode it’s just as bad as stock. I am happy with the mpg improvement though
I’ve had Diablo tuners in the past but I like the fact that this is a custom tune and their support is great. You can’t beat it for the price in my opinion
Does it remove the speed limiter ? my 2022 GMC Canyon tops out at a 100 MPH and I know its got way more. I have the 3.6 V6 I get 21 - 22 MPG now and i live in WV and we have nothing but hills hardly ever flat roads just down hills.
So does anyone have a stock truck with this tune? I'm looking for a diesel but the only ones left are the gas. I'm in Missouri and we have a lot of up and down hills on the freeway. Thanks
