Default torque converter for trex?

i am going to go with the v2 trex cam, and was looking at the tci 4400 stall...would this be a good setup, or should i choose a different stall...it is not a daily driver, and going to be running on 255/50/16 mickey thompson drag radials...thanks

i dont think the TREX is too spray friendly lol. and i'll be the first to tell you those drag radials will be useless. My tiny cam destroys the nitto's on the tiny 3500 stall.

ET streets or slicks man. Dont waste your time with nitto's unless you just want to smoke some tire on the streets and rack up some poinst with the man

especially with 2.73 gears.....my car hooked really well with 2.73's......switched to 3.73's and now I spin a lot (on sllicks) and have not matched my previous 60ft time yet....
