Anybody run a coan convertor Im getting ready to put a turbo 400 in my car and was wondering if anybody try there convertors.I filled out there car spec sheet and they posted back telling me to run a 8 inch convertor 4500 to 5500 stall 
For max et.And i even said that im running a 300shot off the t brake.Just seems like a more all out race convertor.Whats your thoughts.

I am running on of their converters. I have the 8 inch with steel stator, it is suposed to stall at 5200 behind a 360 with a 300 shot. I bought the converter before I had the motor done for the car. It was on a mild head and cam setup and stalled at about 4000 with a 150 shot. The converter is suprisingly streetable all things considered. I think that it is more of an all out race converter but I was able to live with it on the street.

I have a COAN and love it,doesn't even feel like a high stall until you WOT,then it smokes 1st - 2nd and half of 3rd,,,,they are more race oriented than the popular brands.If there is a choice to make they will lean to the performance side Vs the street side.
Would buy another anytime!!!!!!

With a 300 shot, you can optimize for NA or spray, but not both. Pick your strategy before you order.

I hear ya.I think thats to much stall and the more i think about witch one to get i get more confused.I just don't what to buy a convertor that i won't like or perform the way i would like.
