just installed SSF 3500. WOW!!! after much research on this site I decided to buy a SSF3500 converter. All i can say is I wish i would have done this sooner. I love it. I heard that it would be loose, not so i dont think it is loose at all. and this is with 2.73 gears. I fully recommend a stall converter to anyone who is thinking about it. JUST DO IT. 
What seems like a long time ago my camaro had 2.73 gears, and I decided to get a SSF 3500. From the day I put it in I loved it, I never had any problems with it car ran great. Went from a 8.7 1/8th mile to a 8.1 1/8th mile. It just made the car so much fun to drive. Great choice on the vertor you wont be sorry

I had to have my vehicle dyno tuned after a Y3000 2.0STR TC change, I have 3.73 rearend gears though.

yes having the predator did help. I had TM deleted via a custom tune and i adjusted shift points and so forth. I have heard people say that their car fall flat if they dont delete TM, but so far i have not ran in to this problem, thanks to the tune.I just came back from a drive and all i have to say to those that have a4's and dont have a stall, is get one you wont regret it.

I just ordered a vigilante 3200 about two weeks ago and I feal like a twelve year old waiting for birthday presents, every time the ups guy drives by I'm at the window. I'm a pretty gay guy anyway, though... 
Fastest I"ve gone so far is 13.7 @ 103 with SLP LM and lid. Hope to run low 13's with some nitto's after TC.
