2013--2021 Chevrolet Trax / Tracker (8th VIN digit "B") - 1.4L Turbo - Advantage

(11 reviews)
$349 $449
TRIFECTA presents: Chevrolet Trax 1.4T (LUJ/LUV) MY2013--2021 Calibration - Specific power increases of up to +51 ft-lbs and +44 WHP peak to a completely stock Chevrolet Trax 1.4T.
 
The TRIFECTA powertrain recalibration for the Chevrolet Trax 1.4T blends class leading all-around performance with improved fuel efficiency.
All TRIFECTA Powertrain Recalibrations include updated automatic transmission calibrations which provide smoother shifting, improved shift times, and improved shifting logic; updated featuresets include rolling anti-lag and 300 percent faster shifts than stock.
 
TRIFECTA Driver Selectable Vehicle Modes (DSVM) is included. Select between SPORT and STOCK mode, on the fly with the cruise control arming switch. Cruise control system functionality is completely retained and unaffected by DSVM.
In SPORT mode, the vehicle responds much more quickly to accelerator input. Automatic transmission shift patterns are optimized for maximum performance and responsiveness. During "everyday" driving maneuvers, the vehicle feels very much like it did from the factory, but rolling into the pedal quickly reveals a vehicle that wants to GO. Attentive, but without being "twitchy", power delivery is linear and transmission shifts are purposeful. The vehicle produces maximum TRIFECTA power! In STOCK mode, the vehicle behaves just like it did from the factory, under all driving conditions!  
Enhancements made to the Chevrolet Trax 1.4T Ecotec engine software to withstand the added stresses include:
Long term cumulative mileage testing, extended high load dyno testing. Powertrain calibration has been tested and validated for various environments, such as cold/heat, elevation, and variations in fuel quality Octane Adaptive construct enables multi-phased timing tables: Five distinct timing tables replace the OE GM implementation of high/low octane tables Multi-dimensional Airflow Coefficient tables, adds air pressure bias and knock history overlay for enhanced accuracy in boost scenarios Virtualized torque prediction coefficients recalculation model added Airflow based commanded fuel ratio strategies added Multi-stage knock sensor decay and recovery rate tables added TRIFECTA ECP.MK2 (Hybrid Speed Density) support and constructs added  
TRIFECTA Advantage:
If your vehicle is stock, or has certain modifications which "just work" and do not require tuning, you can simply plug and play with our TRIFECTA Advantage calibration. Advantage customers receive full customer support for as long as they own their vehicle. Custom tuning is not offered at this tier, and the price reflects it. It is a great entry level option if you want to get the most potential out of your vehicle with just one mod!
 
Additional information:
This powertrain calibration includes a TRIFECTA powertrain calibration file specific to your vehicle and includes an EZ Flash Cable (TFEZ010U) Premium fuel is recommended for maximum power output, but not required

We are on our second Trax lease and this time have to buy the car at the end because we put way too many miles on it. When we sat down to think of reasons not to keep the car we came up with a lack of heated seats and it being underpowered. Heated seats is easily rectified, but more power? Trifecta made this easy. We have had the base tune now for one month and love it. It does not turn the Trax into a race car by no means, however, it now has the acceleration it should have had from day 1. No check engine lights, car starts and runs as to be expected from the factory. You would not know it’s tuned unless you had driven a stock Trax before to know how slow they are from the factory.

Well when you buy a Chevrolet Trax LS with no Factory Options at all, some might think its not much fun to have. Not if you are a little handy with Tools, have a little Fantasy and a Vision.

Then you need Professionals, like Mike from TRIFECTA , a Lift-kit from Russia, Bigger Tires from COOPER and some 25mm Wheel spacers and you get yourself a tribute Car of the 2016 SEMA Chevrolet Trax Activ Concept on the cheap.

Long story short the TRIFECTA Tune and Transmission mods and Premium Gas made this sluggish, ugly Duckling in to a sporty fun Vehicle, that almost outperforms my 3,2 Jeep Cherokee Trailhawk. Remember “ALMOST”, but for a 1.4 liter 4 banger quiet impressive. I would buy a TRIFECTA product again anytime. Thank you TRIFECTA TEAM. FIVE STARS FOR ALL OF YOU!

So far so good. I installed the tune and spoke to a few nice people who have helped through some issues. The forge wastegate we very simple to install also. The Trax launches hard. Can't wait until I get to install more parts on it!

I received and installed my Trifecta tune software a couple of weeks ago.
What an awesome product! Installation was a breeze.
Directions were easy to follow and software update was quickly installed.
Performance is fantastic. I'm enjoying the power upgrade quite a bit!
The only other upgrade on the car is a K&N air filter element. Nothing else is needed.
Car has 18" wheels and P215/55R18 94H Continental ContiProContact tires.
I'm very pleased with your product and service.
First time I've ever added so much performance without even getting my hands dirty.
Thanks for offering such a great product.
I have and will continue to recommend your company to friends.

Had a '13 Cruze prior to this Trax. By the time I became aware of Trifecta, it already had close to 100k on it so I hesitated. Turns out, shortly after, I ended up buying this Trax out of necessity (wife's Torrent was totaled in a flood) as I need an AWD/4WD for my 75 mile round trip to work in sometimes snowy Wisconsin. Had 13k on it at the time I decided to order the tune. I've read other reviews for other Trifecta tunes lamenting the fact they waited so long to do it. Cable showed up in about a week, needed to retrieve the security info for my ECM; within 2 days the tune was posted. Took around 20 minutes to install, and... yes!!! Night and day. The ever unscientific butt dyno certainly verifies the dyno readout they post online. I have owned and used programmers to enhance other "later" model vehicles of mine ('00 Sierra 4.8, '04 Impala SS) and those were great too. BUT the absolute best part of this particular tune is that the bump in part throttle power is fantastic!! The other vehicles were most noticeable at or near WOT; just everyday driving has been transformed for me with the Trax. This is my first Trifecta tune so I'm not sure what if anything I'd want altered in the tune, it's pretty darned dynamite as is! Including a few small- and big- block Chevys I've built in my days, dollar for dollar, this is the best bang for the buck I've spent (Hard to find where you can get the kind of power bump for less than $300 anywhere else!). No, you're not going Mustang or Camaro hunting, and no, I'm not out drag racing everyone at every stoplight, but for this vehicle as my everyday driver that sees mostly highway and interstate driving (and the merging needed), the tune makes it a very enjoyable ride to work! And after a month of driving with the tune, fuel economy doesn't seem affected much (it's getting progressively colder so it's tough to measure that right now; I'll know for sure once we get back into spring and 70+ degree weather). As others have said, if you're even remotely considering it, don't wait! Well done, Trifecta!

Big difference! Especially in throttle response. Made the little Trax a lot more fun to drive. Averaged about 1-2 mpg on economy mode on long distances. Wish there were more toys for the lil Trax!

The best money I ever spent on a tune/performance upgrade. I'm not just your every day guy I'm a automotive expert with over a decade of experience in the industry and I'm blown away with the results of this tune alone with no other mods. I've seen YouTube videos about this tune on the equivalent (buick encore) and the video states that they weren't sure if they could tell a difference, well I hate to say it the video is a joke. You can defiantly feel the increase in power. Can't wait to see if fuel mileage increases at all. Thank you trifectia tuning. Five stars and two thumbs up rating.

Really wakes up this car. Should have com like this from the factory.

My AWD doesn't labor any longer, especially going up hills or when pushed.

It makes 1st gear a little tall, but other than that, shifts are firm and there is no more gear hunting.

Great product! Must have for any Trax owner.

YEP!!

This will wake up your Chevy Trax. Feels quicker and more responsive. Makes getting out in traffic much easier and quicker. Took about 20 minutes for the entire tune.

Bonus--Ordered and came very quickly. Already had a "red" cable from before but another is on the way as well. This is a must for your Trax as it gives it "spirit" I will enjoy for certain.

Wait till the wife drives........ :D
