Its not actually Trifecta....its a different shop that purchased the Trifecta software and will be attempting to do their own tunes.

Awesome, I just purchased MACE LFX Cams and they recommend efi live which is kinda expensive on top of already purchasing trifecta's software, tune and ez flash cable....Will I be able to use the same software for the new trifecta? I heard LMR could tune the cams too.

Since you have an LFX with the Delphi ECM, you'll likely be better off using something that is more widely used like HP tuners or EFI live. Only reason is that most tuners use this software and it will be easier for you to get a true dyno tune.

I'm sure Trifecta or IPF could do your tune as well, but more difficult to get a real dyno tune from them.

EDIT:

So I realize you said you already bought the Trifecta software. No worries....see my response to you in the cam thread in the LFX section.

Trifecta is not supporting a tune for these cams according to Dean at mace. Talking to IPF about this...the are very interested in getting these cams tuned if Mace will pump their tuning software. Said they would do a free tune for the r &d... Ultimately up to Mace. I think it would go over well to have the cams and a tuning solution to be sold along with it. One stop shopping is what I like. We will see wee will see.

That is cool. Yep I know IPF is wanting to get their hands on a set of these cams and see what they can do! I really hope someone gives them an opportunity to give it a go.

I was under the impression that Trifecta (Vince) would not tune these cams if they came from RX, but maybe its all cams for the V6?

LMR on the other hand, if though they are using Trifecta software, I'm guessing they'd give it a shot.
