Has anyone tried relearning the ECU ?There was always a lot of talk about adaptive driving and how you can reteach the ECU after a reset. Back in the Day with the AMG’s we used to put in sport mode and paddle shift to 1st gear and hold the paddle and keep at a high rpm to try and have the ECU adapt to the higher rpms . Also the fastest we noticed were runs in sport mode and launch in first and let the car shift itself .

How do you figure? They still haven't provided any proof. No screenshots, videos, anything. I personally spoke to them and they said they still can't tune for a cam, and their only method of tuning requires you to physically mod the ECU to accept their software, and they won't release their software to write tunes, so basically if you want to make changes you have to call them and wait for them to do it. What they're doing is essentially making an internal piggyback inside the ECU instead of outside, and it's still not fully functional.
Who knows what they really can or can't do.

They claim to have full calibration access, but of course without seeing their stuff we have to take that claim at face value. But at the very least, publicly, they're involved with ProCharger and Whipple, and in the latter case, they're distributing Whipple's CARB EO calibration, so at the very least they've managed to figure out how to stuff all the parameters in there that Whipple specified on their EO application...

Have been watching the Procharged cars on dynos and track. Doesn’t look good so far. So, Trifecta is doing well … from the start ? I’ll say NO.
I still have my Procharged C7 and after my Florida tuner stated hell NO for adding a Procharger to my incoming C8 … something is going on.
Trifecta … ???!??? What are they doing well ??
