Default Lightly modded ws6 a4 ss4000 stall or no?

I just bought a ws6 a week ago and i'm looking for a stall to help me out. So far ive ordered a lid,cutout,tune and some hoosier drag radials.
Would a ss4000 stall be to much. I don't care about drive ability issues just getting out the whole and staying out there is my main concern.

Something in the 4000 range would work but might be a bit much. Do you have any plans for a cam? We have a 4C that is rated at 3600-3800 that would be a better match for your current mods. We do have the 5C option in the 4000 range but with a factory cam it will be to much stall.

A 4K may be a bit loose with factory gearing. Even a good 3200 will get you great 60ft times. Its more about what you are willing to tolerate during everyday driving. The SS4000 is a great choice for a converter though.

Why are you set on a Trex? What are you wanting your car for?


If you end up going Trex for some reason, go minimum of 4000..

I prefer Vig.
