of course i know the 2 step is for the stick and the stall is for the auto..but it seems like everyone that gets an auto is always so pumped for a stall converter cause they can launch hard...of course a stock stick car u would have to just feather the throttle to get the right rpm but wouldent a 2 step be the same thing? so shouldent u just get a stick for the fun factor and the 2 step for the street (seems like the best of both worlds)

or you could just feather the throttle and put the 300 you saved into some custom tuning and come out even better

the benefit to a two step is for launching at the track. once you have found the combo and launch RPM that works best for your set up the 2 step allows you to plant your foot to the floor and hold the RPM at the desired level. then you drop the clutch and go. it allows consistant and better launches.

yea i mean i know what it does but it just seems like all people talk about with autos is what stall they have like its the best thing in the world? i was just makin sure that there is nothing diff between the 2...i guess cause stick can pick whatever rpm they want whenever so autos are just happy to be able to launch higher than idle

I guess so. Autos will always launch better than manuals.

autos might be a little more consistant, especially for the more 'not so good' driver, but thats pretty broad to say they're 'always' better at launching

Stkjock

two different applications. 2 step is for sticks. stall for the auto. they will never be used on the same car.

a higher stall converter allows an auto car to launch harder. then of course is the transbreak, that is the best thing ever for an auto on the strip.

99% of the time they are. They almost always provide a faster 60ft time. Kind of difficult/damn near impossible to match the instant power an automatic can provide. If the tires can handle it, auto will launch best.

Trying to drag race competitively with a stick is very difficult. Autos are just far, far more consistent.

Guys get excited for getting a stall because it can knock half a second, a lot of times even more, off the ET. Keeps the car in it's powerband longer.
