Well correct me if I'm wrong but they do have the kit made, they have a video of it at least. Could you not just install the kit and get the Teri to tune it?

Word is that Trifecta said that if you have FI on your V6, they can tune it.

The kit so to speak is a prototype and I doubt they got far enough into tooling for production but you could certainly ask that question.

They have a couple tuners in house. The Chief Engineer and top tuner in the country(IMO) is Graham Beham.

If I had a V6 I would take it there and give Graham a blank check and say call me when your finished!

That is easy for you to say Paul, your car got done. When I visited them back in December I felt that type of enthusiasm but if I would have done what you are suggesting I would have gone 7 months now without my car.

paul2010 · 07-11-2010, 08:16 PM

Maybe or maybe they would have used your car as a test mule and returned it back to you asap for feedback you never know. I do know that they are working on the V6 even though people do not believe it. I have seen with my own eyes! I did get my car done but now it's back at LPE for round 2.

Abygale · 07-11-2010, 10:36 PM

Well it sure isn't that they were not offered "test mule" cars. That isn't the issue here at all. I saw the car with my own eyes too, I even got to ride in it. That doesn't change the fact that there has been no NEW news on this for a long time.

Im sure that after seeing STS gettin tuned by Trifecta, they might well have them on it unless there are contract issues.

why would they wait that long if people want to buy it RIGHT NOW? if it is ready they should give us details, if it isn't they should tell us that also.

They must be still working out some kinks on the test mule.

It isn't ready.

darwin · 07-12-2010, 06:18 PM

I think I would rather have a super charger, but it seems like all these companies taking forever with the v6. Cant you put headers on and still get a siuper charger or is it bad for the engine having both like the turbos are?

paul2010 · 07-12-2010, 06:49 PM

They are probably not ready yet. There are a couple things they are probably working out. Who ever get's it dialed in first will do well. Along the way it is not good to let the competition know anything about the pregress or any of the hang ups. If they post what they know here they could potentially give the enemy info that is top secret. Sometimes less info is better but in the back of your mind know that they are racing to be finished before anyone else. Of course this is just my opinion.
