lol I know how you feel.. imagine my surprise when I gunned it with the MT ET Streets for the first time at the track..

nadda.. 2.4 60 fts., best of 2.0s.. nothing less than that, and almost 2 full seconds before anything happens when flooring it!

Trust me, I TRIED to break the tires loose off the line... still nothing..

Nice, ive heard that flashing the converter like that is usually faster...but im assuming thats only with an NA car.

With my blower car, I was faster when I footbraked it up...but im assuming thats because I dont have to get the blower spinning and the air moving.

And for the record, a stall converter turns an auto into a beast...definitely one of the best mods you can do with an auto car.

Yea I hope the converter helps big time. I'll deff have to play with the two launches once the blowers on.

..funny thing is that when I power brake it, it holds it right at 2800.. but when I flash it, it's right at 2k when lags like a **** then takes off whenever it feels like it..
