      I highly doubt you'll see gains of 20hp from a tune job on a stock engine. 5hp is more likely. However, if you've done modifications to your engine (header, intake, cams, etc) you'll see much larger gains.

      Yo!!! I just emailed trifecta a few days ago asking if there was a tune for the 2008 Aveo (1.6L 5 spd. Manual) but have not heard back from them. I am interested... I run my own business, and could make a trip to the Trifecta area a multi-purpose trip; promoting and tuning. How long would the car be needed for? And isn't Trifecta in Portland or Seattle? Just curious... if it was a 1-3 day thing, and the cost of doing it wasn't prohibitive, I may consider volunteering to help develop a tune... I see the supported vehicle list includes Cruze 1.4 and 2.0L, but I didn't see a tune for a 1.6L... anybody interested and/or got any information?

      I think your cost are only the travel, but check this information, and they're interested in tune for 1.6 ECOtec Family, not from ETEC-II, which engine have your car?...

      I am about 1.5 hours south of Seattle. E-mailed them, but never heard back. I too have a 2008. So I presumed no interest.

      I just received an email from Vince at Trifecta... It basically says they unfortunately do not and will not have tuning for 2008 and older Aveos, due to the lack of a Mass Air Flow (MAF) sensor, which limits tuning potential. The good news though, & I got info to back this up: I heard on this forum that Aveos are basically turbo ready (I assume 2008 and older); in the DIY supercharger plan from the guys at GA Projects in Australia, it states that cars with a MAF sensor are difficult to add boost to; 'coz the supercharger has to be downstream of the sensor to avoid throwing engine codes... It also says that cars with just a Intake Air Temperature (IAT) sensor are actually ideal for the project (See my DIY supercharger thread for more info-also, I'll be testing some tuning software connected via laptop/USB/OBD-II soon... Keep ya'll posted! ; )
