Please don't take offense 1151, it was meant in the spirit of levity. I didn't mean to have it sound like we were making you a charity, but after the BATMAN pledge drive started I thought it could be extended to other members. I have no knowledge of the Trifecta tune, other than skimming posts about it here, but you know somebody will step up with all the info you need.

My mechanic dude(indispensable) tells me some of the honda guys he knows have 400 plus hp in them little cars So a SS is still gona fall short if you found one of those.I got to tell ya what happened sat morn I'm coming up to a stop light. and I notice this clean looking mustang come up next to me . kinda gave it a look over not too fancy like a saleen or nothing just black,shinny, tight and clean looking, nice really. So we have about 1/4 mile up hill to where the freeway on ramp is,I'm feeling frisky,light turns green,I stomp on it, he does too,the race is on.Things going well for the short bus to the top of first,then the dreaded turbo lag gets me going into second.This thing comes by me like I'm standing still,I glance over just in time to see this little chrome snake coiled up like it's going to strike on the side of it. I just cracked up knowing this guy was freaking out thinking wow I,m getting beat by a little blue station wagon in my mighty COBRA. He really had her cranked up when he caught me, it sounded good. So I'm hoping the trifecta tune will help mine too. Some times we just bite off more than we can handle, before I mess around with a mustang again I'm looking for that little snake on the side !!!

When I met with Rainman what a sweet panel the dude that did his flames is world famous they are awesome in person. He has the Trifecta with it wired to the cruse control button so he can turn it on and off. Nice to have the good milage till you need the power He had the dyno papers in his build book the tune gives him 304hp to the ground. I guess trifecta is a local company here I've ben emailing back and forth with the guy who installed his I'll let you know how it works out.I haven't got a figure yet but have heard its around 300 I think I would save that on gas cause you can turn off the tune and run stock when you don't need the power.Mine dropped to 22mpg avg. when I put the stg1 on it and you can't turn it off.So I'll let you know when I find out.
