Nothing that I have heard. Though, as far as I know, Trifecta is the only one out with a true tune for the V6.

I would not take the shop's word for the HP Tune. Before you for the money over for the tune, make sure you email the guys at HP Tune, you can do it through their site http://www.hptuners.com/contact.php

They respond very quickly, I checked with them 1.5 weeks ago, and the guy said he DID NOT support V6 yet. I almost was fooled by a shop here, I then decided to go with Trifecta, its more fun that way I think.

I think they are. A local tune guy gave them a shout for me and they said not yet but expect something soon. Diablo claims they are still working a tune as well.

I just installed Trifecta's tune and about shat myself! It was ridiculous! Did some datalogging and hopefully will come out even better after that......

It is to easy. He sends you 4 files 2 stock/ 2 custom. Load up the custom ones do some datalogging and then send back to him. Vince will then check your logs and let you know the results.

Trifecta is awesome!

Devildoc, we have very similar mods. I got my Trifecta tune in last week, while the base tune was OK, I had Vince firm the shifts up and fix the fuel trims that the current Airaid tube was messing up. Have him do that, it's AWESOME!

I emailed Vince afterwards and he said that my AFR looks great now on the airaid, though, I'm running premium right now so that may have something to do with it.

Also, the addition of the hotter burning plugs and the x-pipe may/not have something to do with it. Not sure yet. I'm waiting on the ARH headers and then the baby is going straight to the dyno.

^^^You are going to blow your load when you get the LTs on.
