It will eliminate CEL's if you are using long tube headers.

You can ask for the Ghost Cam feature, all that does is give the sound and feel of an aggressive cam at idle. It can be turned off if you activate the crusie control.
You are getting the tune for $400, the Ghost Cam featureis only an option and no additional cost.

I originally installed Trifecta's tune and after reading about the Ghost Cam tune asked Vince to send me my original tune but with the Ghost Cam feature.

I have also installed the tune in several V6's and a couple of V's and they are all very happy with the tune.

Those of us who have had the torque management for a while have not shown any increase in performance at the track with or without this system on.

I like the idea of the trans work more efficiently, but I don't want people to think this will increase performance at the track.

Yes the Trifecta tune now has a cam phasing 13 HP gain (not to be confused with the Ghost Cam). This cam phase was documented and dynoed here on the forum.

So on the receiving of the tune, does everyone elect to get it via email through file or get the special device shipped to you? I'm half way tempted to pull the trigger on this though I'm a little strapped for cash right now.

Okay, I understand that the computer cannot tell the V6 has had a tune but that if the dealership did know it may void the warranty. I also understand all the technical issues about dealers having to proove the mod caused the problem, etc. But here is my queston. How much risk is there & what specifically are the damage risks that a tune really could cause?

Out of curiosity, how does the 'Ghost Cam' sound under normal driving conditions and from the sound clip, is this the most aggressive setting or least? I've heard there were like three settings and how about shake. Is it noticeable? I don't want my car be rocking.

As soon as you accelerate the ghost tune is gone. It is only noticeable at idle.

I asked Vince which level he gave me so I don;t really know.

The car does have a slight "rock" to it and is very noticeable. I will try to take some video clips while inside the car.

Yea it would be nice! I wish Vince would come on board and offer some words on this and maybe run it a little longer. I just found out about it a few days ago and obviously there was no heads up on it either. I could have been better prepared. I have a surgery coming up in the next few weeks and not sure what I'm going to do out of pocket on it.

Ok I've still heard nothing from Trifecta on my order. I can understand being understaffed, but they're still running a business.

TMacGranger33 (Chris Mendoza) raves about his Trifecta Tune!

I can attest that it's money well spend and the Ghost Tune is pretty dang cool.

Maybe he needs to post up a video of his rediculous car.......

Here is a comparison video of the vehicle shake with the Ghost Cam tune and without for those that have been asking


Ghost Cam Tune DISABLED

http://youtu.be/08gY5T3uWl8

Ghost Cam Tune ON

http://youtu.be/iJ__f1Gz18s

The shake in the glass of water is more noticeable with Ghost Cam tune on.
