My car had a 3500 PTC in it when i bought it and i just pulled it out about 10 minutes ago to put in a yank ss3600. It worked fine on motor but was very loose. I could foot brake it on the street to 3300 rpm. I removed it because it was either very inneficient or i was blowing through it on top end especially on nitrous. I figured it to have about 22% slip at 6700 rpm on a cam only motor and a 150 shot
