good so far, why? yours slipping already?
bad drivers can cause that
but seriously, that is true... and if yours is already slipping, get ready to drop a grand in a clutch/flywheel/clutch rod
that or no more WOT pulls until you save for one....or stay on 15psi

It's not slipping. Just don't feel the same. And I don't ride it or pop it or anything just since I started doing pulls with the tune it don't feel as strong. Also gm has a new bulletin out for trifecta tunes

Should hold up just fine to anything now that Vince has changed the way the tune works. For instance in 2nd gear boost shoots to 22 psi then slowly climbs to my max boost level. Emailed Vince about it and he said anything over 22 psi in 2nd gear the clutch will start slipping so he limits initial boost. Let me emphasize that ONLY in 2nd gear I get limited boost to 22psi then climbs, 3rd and 4th are wide open straight to max boost and well my 1st gear is limited to 10 psi as per my request.
But I'm sure I've been running a bit more boost then you guys for awhile now
By the way I tried out a 28 psi in 3 & 4 gears the other day, I didn't like it so I went back to my original tune.
Only thing I've been battling is a re-occurring code P0141 Heater sensor malfunction which is only used for cold start up, other then that it has no real effect on anything. I can clear the code but it comes back about every 2 weeks. Need to find me someone with HPT that can turn off the mil for the rear O2 or by me an interceptor gauge so I can reset it from the gauge and not have to hook a laptop up to clear it
I might move on to the new Trifecta + HPT tune and get BYT to tune it. I would need to pay a small fee to Vince for the update and then buy HPT. ONly reason I say this is because GM is checking for Trifecta tunes now, so screw it ***** to the wall. Break it, build it better

That was the only reason I went Trifecta originally over HPT was the dual tune so I could GMS1, a little more aggressive tune and the main reason, it was a stealth tune which helped with warranty. Wonder if this is going to bring the cost of the tune down some now that "stealth" isn't going to be a feature any more?

Sucks about the hatch, I'm sure eventually I'll be looking at a tranny rebuild myself. I do have and Act 2100 and a South Bend clutch in there, but no rebuild.
I was tuning my van today, I got my idle & 1K rpms at 14.7-15.1 AFR, and with all the fuel I can take out on the SAFC my lows are 14.2 AFR from 2k-6.5k rpms, a little rich but I can live with it.
At wot 15 psi I'm at a steady 12.0 AFR on the 650cc injectors through every gear, I'd prefer 11.5 AFR but I will live with 12.0 AFR on a forged engine.
I tried to turn the boost up to 18psi today and I was at 13.0 AFR .
So looks like I'm stuck at 15 psi (or until I feel like swapping out the ECU), but 15 psi on a TDO6H-20G is 650cfm .
I did turn my fuel pressure up to 50 psi from 42 psi today in hopes of richening up the AFR to 11.5 AFR @ 15psi (I do have a Walbro 255 to support it), but haven't had a chance to get out on the highway and try it out.
Going withg the extra .4 liters from a 2.0 4G63 to a 2.4 4G64 is making more of a difference then I thought it would as far as injector size.
I'm definetly buying a new AFR gauge, the peak and hold AFR gauge is fuggin annoying as hell.
I would like to get the tweaks worked out and go to Steele in the van when its done.
Interesting fact I found on a DSM site about the TDO6H:
"The TD06H-20g should flow 13% more than the TD06-20g, and 44% more than an unclipped TD05H-20g"
Happy 4th of July, be safe and drive careful!
