I am having real bad 60' problems with my car.

I have a 01 Formula A4 3.23 car with a cutiot, air lid, fra, Predator programming, and a TCI Streetfighter converter. At the track, I can pull no better than a 1.9 60' time. The car seriously bogs out of the hole. The best description I have heard from the other people that have tried is that it feels like we forgot to turn off traction control. The converter shows on the other end of the track, so I have a hard time believing it is the converter. I have tried on BFG DR, Nitto DR, and MT ET Streets, with the same results. If anyone has any ideas for something I can try next time at the track, please let me know. I and all of my friends are at a total loss.

Thanks

 

what are you leaving the light at? What RPM? and what size stall that's a 3500 right?

 

The Streetfighter is our 3000 stall converter. It's typically good for at least high 1.7 or low 1.8 sixty foots. There could be a sprag problem with your converter. Schwa, if you want to send the converter to me, I'll be glad to check it out and even upgrade you to Super Streetfighter 3500 if you want it.
You can email me at kevin@tciauto.com or call me at (662)224-9355

right because its the Super Street fighter that is the larger stall. I have the street fighter myself.. I don't know what Im thinking. well on Nittos I was able to pull a 1.83 short time. good luck on figuring out the problem

 

It doesn't matter if I brake stall it, flash it, or whatever, I get the same results.

Kevin, thanks for your offer. I sent you an email.

 

Well, Thanks to Kevin for taking my converter back and sending me the new one. What few small problems I had with my other one seem to be gone. I have no first gear from a stop if I punch it, and it feels GREAT. Also, the small amout of drivetrain vibration I was having is totally gone. I couldn't be happier with this converter right now.

Headed to the track Friday night to hopefully pull a new best.

And for anyone that is thinking about it, get the TCI SSF 3500. Don't worry about warranty or anything, because Kevin is really great and will help you with your problems like he did me.

 

thats what i like to hear i got my bits in the mail yesterday for my tci shift kit and my vert should be here tomorrow i cant wait to install that sucker hehe.

Well, track results are in. I definately pulled a new best, and my 60' problem has totally disappeared.
Previous best with the Streetfighter was
1.89 60' (bogging)
12.62@108.9

New best with Super Streetfighter
1.72 60' (spinning alittle, on worn out BFG DRs)
12.38@108.9

I wasn't able to get my shift points lined out. Do you guys recommend lowering my shift point from 6100 or raising the rev limiter some? I didn't get to make many runs because they were holding a 3 day event this weekend, so there were a ton of people there.

 

Josh,
Congrats on a new best. Your car is running awesome!
