Default yank and perforabuilt perform well

Mods:
TR224, TSP 5.3L 2.5 heads, 25% powerbond pulley, pacesetter headers, TSP catted y-pipe, ls6 intake and injectors, gmmg exhaust, lid, ported stock throttle body, 3.23 stock rearend.
---12.6 at 114mph dead hooking on nitto drag radials


added level 2 performabuilt tranny, 1 7/8 AR headers and their ORY pipe, and yank PT3800 2.0 STR.
---11.80 at 115mph (1.69 60-ft) dead hooking on MT street radials (they are a solid 1/2 inch plus taller than the nitto drag radials).

i gained a solid 8 tenths. i am pretty happy. i almost wish i would have went with a pt 4000. yank didn't think i had high enough shift points for that stall when i talked to them. who knows. tranny didn't skip a beat and the stall performed well. by the way, this is definately a full weight car. i have the jack and spare tire removed along with the fog lamps but not much else.

On the HWY in lockup it would be no different than stock and possibly better. There would however be a little more used in slow around town driving.
