Torque Converter Results

I got my re-stalled torque converter installed last week and hit the track. I got about two-tenths improvement on my 60' and three-tenths on my 1/4 mile ET!

Do you already have the bluetop solenoids in the trans? those were a MASSIVE difference for me, also did you have the TCM tuned for the new converter? that might make a big difference

It's an aftermarket trans upgrade that drastically reduces shift times. Heres a fantastic video covering it by the god himself, Legit Street Cars.


Here is the manufacturer's website
