Default RE: converter

yeah i got a TCI street fighter with a custom stall. works great. it's like hitting a 100 shot as soon as you hit the throttle. i can lay rubber through 3rd gear. mine is a little loose for daily driving but i wanted an aggresive launch. so far best 60' is 1.84 with stock suspension and stock tires. it picked up 2 tenths in the 60' alone. once i get a tune done for the converter i should run 12's already have run 13.08 only 103mph. need converter to lock earlier i think. it's definitly worth the money and TCI is great to work with.

i'm still on stock wheels and tires and 60' are 1.84 so far. i picked up about 2tenths in the 60' and 3 tenths overall so far. my converter was a custom build so it stalls a bit more than the standard street fighter. i wouldn't reccommend going that high unless you are going to race alot. as far as street driving it's ok. i need to play with lock up a little. i think there is more et in the car with locking up the converter earlier. i have run a best of 13.08@103 so far. launch is great!!
