Surely this must be a mistake.

I would hold off on the TC Jody. Our cars have more than enough torque at almost any RPM to destroy even a full slick at launch. I cut low 1.6 60' times with my foot entirely off the brake pedal when I mash the throttle. Torque management unfortunately kicks in when I try to power brake the car at the starting line. You can only notice this when you're at a good hooking track on a sticky tire. You want to remove the torque management before you attempt to introduce more torque to the rear wheels. It really disables the power of the car and slowed me down to a 1.8 60' time with perfect traction.

LET Motorsports is proud to announce the release of the final piece of the 55K performance puzzle - The >>>LET high-stall Torque Converter (HSTC)<<<

This modified factory unit is designed to put more of the power you already have to the ground, without sacrificing drivability at all. Some customers have reported better-than-stock drivability with the HSTC installed !!!

Stall Speed is increased several hundred RPM to a more performance-oriented level, which varies depending on your supporting mods. The low- and midrange are substantially improved, with no loss in top end - the HSTC retains all factory lockup characteristics, as well as an improved Stall-to-Torque Ratio (STR)

This unit will net you a 0.250-0.400 second reduction of your quarter-mile times, and possibly more. Thousands of development miles have been put on these modified units with no failures and no warranty issues, so you can remain confident in this mod for years to come. Use of a factory core means no flagging or refusal of warranty work.

The HSTC is an ideal first mod, as well as being a great final mod to complete your performance package. The HSTC is docile around town, yet enhances your car's acceleration unlike any other mod available, at any price.

Pricing is set at $1200.00, with an additional (refundable) core charge.

Promotional pricing, for the first run of units, will be offered at $999.99 !!!! (plus shipping)


Please add your name to the list below to guarantee your spot - this promotion ends February 28th !!!


Yes! I'm interested in the HSTC !!!

Finally! This is what I am talking about...I was going to go blindly and buy it without knowing half of the story. thanks for the advice...I was getting ready to buy it but will hold off.

Are these coolers here yet?, lol~!

Can't believe I missed this thread.

Great stuff... seems like aftermarket is coming along great for these cars. Not to mention LET is sure making a name for themselves. Great bunch of guys!

How do we bypass the torque management software? And if this happens is it bye bye transmission? Is the torque management software there to save your trans? What is its purpose?
