    My torque converter is in!

    I just came from Outlaw Motorsports after having my APS 2800 and B&M Supercooler installed and I must say they are a group to deal with. Tony was able to squeeze me in and gave a good deal to boot. I'll definitely have him do some more work for me.

    Now, to the converter. All I can say is wow!!
    All of the folks on here that said that tc's are good bang
    for the buck mod are exactly right! I purchased the Noesp mod about a
    month ago and to be honest I was unsure that it worked.
    Some times I could light em up a bit, but other times no matter how I
    tried they wouldn't break loose. Now, at a stoplight, I can light them up at will!! Now I have the type of grunt from a dig that I was looking for.

    Maybe the mechanic who put yours in can call my dealer and give him some pointers?? My stock torque converter is bad and the dealer has been trying to fix it (replace it) for 3 weeks now. They already botched the repairs once and are trying again tomorrow.

    How long did yours take?
