They all make a good product & can do the job well. It comes down to personal preference & your goal's for the car. Once you pick one, usually you wish you went bigger. If you go to well prep track I would look into a 4k converter.

If you stay small Vig3200 all the way.
4k or bigger Yank get's my vote.

Good luck

I have a 3200Vig and so far its been great. havent been to the track yet with it but on the street it drives pretty good. Not to loose and once it is lock it drives like stock. Kinda wish i would have went bigger though.

you guys might wanna tell him that the vig's stall about 3-400 higher than what they are rated at, so a 3200 is actually like a 3600...

Got a yank ss3600 2.2 str and like it alot for my DD, do some searching and learning before you decide

I've had a Vig3200 in my daily driver for almost 3 years, I love it.

But yeah, the Vig converters do stall higher than rated. Mine's probably really a 3600.

I use TCI I had a 3600for over a year over 500 passes and 500 pounds of n20 no problems 60ft 1.50 on the motor and 1.30's on the bottle, I pulled it to put in a PY3600 YANK thats is the best yank has to offer well at least thats what they told me it 60ft high 1.50's and high 1.30 on the spray about .5 higher than the TCI then 1 month later The yank takes a **** and out comes the yank in goes a new TCI 4000 now the car is 60ft 1.48 on motor and 1.32 on the spray,

Yank has the converter now when it comes back i will have a new PY3600 for sale
