11' camaro ls

Lookin to tune my car. Wondering whats the best route to go. Had a guy going to write a tune but for some reason the HP tune is locking him out. He has done multiple v6 tunes before. Looking for an aggresive 87 tune if possible. Any ideas?

We offer Trifecta tuning for your vehicle. Lots of people have bought from us on here. We include transmission tuning if you have an auto, free updates for life for minor mods, and ghost cam.

BN Racing. Whats the price? Is it relatively aggressive tune? I want something good. For some reason it was impossible to "tune" my car from a local place.

it was impossible to tune from a local place cause it is impossible to tune LOL, unless they are a Trifecta dealer. the only options as of now is Trifecta (what BNR was refering to) Hypertech and IPF. hypertech is a pre programmed tune, not custom or agressive. IFP claims good numbers but no one ive seen has used it. whats left is Trifecta and its pretty good. you order it off BNR (cause he sells it the cheapest, and jerry is awesome) and you tell them what mods you have and the LLT tuning god Vince from Trifecta writes you up a tune lol. you load it with your laptop then you go and enjoy it. and whenever you add any mods as long as it nothing major like forced induction you get free updates to your tune. and for even more power they offer for $100 more a E85 tune which will get you even more power.

apparently its not impossible, they have HP tuned (written custom tunes) for three other v6 owners in the area. They are a gm (mainly camaro and corvette shop) in the area. They believe someone handheld tuned my car pre- me- purchasing it.thus i am locked out. i just hate the idea of a handheld type tune and dnt wanna drop 600 on something that isnt gunna be here long. im ordering f.i. by christmas. not sure which which is the reason its taking so long to decide. dont wanna rush into a 7k mistake.

Get a tune from a guy that's done 2 or 3 LLT/LFX tunes, or get a tune from a guy that's done several hundred LLT/LFX cars. Easy choice.

Trifecta decided not to do the july sale by the way.


Total tune cost with the cable is $465 shipped

HPTuners has support for the 2012 LFX but NOT the 2010-2011 LLT. You guys CANNOT be tuned by HPTuners.

Hptuners can only read and display data from some of the sensors in our cars but cannot tune unless you have a 2012+ with the LFX as stated above

Well if your going FI your only option is Trifecta. every FI v6 on here with the exception of the couple IPF SC builds are running trifecta

He ended up living about 10mins away from me so we met up and trifecta tuned his car yesterday. Near real time session with Vince so he's all dialed in in one shot. He's going to drive it for a week and meet me next Friday to adjust anything he wants to change.
