Default Yank PT 4400 finally installed

I finally put in my Yank PT4400 today and OH MY ******* GOD!!!!!!! this thing is bad ***. My car drives like a totally diffrent car. It is so much better than the 2800 that I use to have. Before I got the converter I heard a lot of stories about how bad the driveability is in a 4400 converter but it is not bad at all. It locks up at about 40 mph and drives like a normal car until you stab the throttle. I would definitly recommend this converter to anyone. I absolutly love it. Cant wait to go to the track !!!!

I have a Yank 4200 convertor and it is a great convertor for the track. It is a good convertor on the street and iit s good from a roll going between 30 to 40 MPH per hour if you ever play. Sometimes I wish I had got the 4400. Anyway enjoy it.

great converter for track use and all motor apps no doubt. I dont think you'll want to use 4.10 gears with that converter though you'll basically stay at redline.

I agree it would be too much, you won't have much useable powerband with a 5000 rpm shift extension and steep gears.
