Just Like the title states ,It also needs to be a lock up converter, i have had 2 Yanks & now the 3600 is not Locking up anymore ,I know Percision industries make a decent one ,its just a little expensive to buy one & then find out its loose & needs to be pulled to have it tightend , there also around 750.00 to 1k ,i am also looking @ an Ptc converter ,any input on this from guys running an a4 i would appreciate it

turbo or s/c? My yank works flawlessly

There are 4 or 5 converters that come to mind.I chose a Vigilanti because of the 2 year warrenty and the free stall change.As far as cost it's just one part of the car were you have to bite the bullet because it's that important to the toal package.Don't try and be thrifty here or you will end up paying twice.
Good luck.

Yank does have a new blower convertor out, but it doesn't sound like your going to go down that road due to your previous experiences with Yank.

Other than that, I would look at the Vig triple disc or a custom one from Circle D.

Good luck!

I was going to get yank py3400e myself. Know a few pretty big power guys running it.
What model yank do you have and how much power are you putting down?
turbo or super..how about a bit more info.

I also am running vig in my 96z but its only got like 325 engine.I was considering like a triple disc vig as another option to the yank.

PY3400 did it for me after several other converters.

Everything in my sig was with the 3400 Extreme. I just had my trans rebuilt and changed the converter.

I can't speak from experience just yet but the new FTI converters sure are making alot of people happy. Everyone says they are very streetable and they setting new bests with them left and right. Mine is going in next week!

once my converter stopped locking up and it was a loss of power to the lockup solenoid. if this is a recurring issue for you i would suspect its not necessarily the converter

vig converters belong in the trash. Neal chance is the only converter i will run in anything.Had a mid west,yank,and vig.Yank would be my second option but nothing compares to a chance IMO.

Well, I've got an Edge 3000 "street edge" I'm getting ready to put in my truck along with the new 4l80e. Its a 5400# 4x4 truck with a forged 346 LS1 and 15lbs of boost, with one of my turbo kits.

We will see how it runs

PI Vigilante here 3000 and when it locks you know it.

Yank told me definitely do not lock up the convertor on the dyno. The Vig's and Circle D's have a multidisc option, so those can handle it.

In any event, I've been happy with the two Yanks I've had over the years.

Don't be sure that the multi-disc Vig's can be locked up on the dyno. Seen a fairly new one get killed on the dyno on lock up.
