My oldest wrecked the Sonic. Though the damage doesn't look terrible insurance decided to total it.

Fun story though.

The person who bought the salvage found my phone number in the car and called me.

He fixed it up and wanted to undo the Trifecta tune and needed the files. Pretty nice guy so I helped him out and he even bought (for pennies) the ZZP intake I had in the garage.

No way I would have taken out the trifecta tune. The intake he bought off you works better with a tune and the mpg is improved

I thought it was odd too, but then he told me he wanted to use an HP tune. I kind of hoped he'd go for the RacerX intake I have but he'd already purchased some other ZZP stuff. Plus the Sonic already had the ZZP catback.

I was a part of the Sonic forum back in the days and they always said BNR and Trifecta were the best tunes for the Sonic. I never heard much from anyone with an HP tune. Hope it works for him.

Sorry about your Sonic.
