i had one in my car for 4 years.
i did pick up a consistant .05 and 1mph when i switched to a yank.
not bad for a 250 dollar converter if you ask me.

Ive got one...

T400 with brake.
1.3 60's leaving off the brake.

Another friend of mine has a glide in his LS1 Wagon.

Its been 1.32 flashing the converter from 1500 rpms.

Good verter for the money. I paid about $500 for mine. Its a T400 Nitrous stall from them.

just trying to get info on all of the converters before making a decision since its going to be mid may before i get it, just kinda looking over which ones have had the most problems, and of the problems had which company had the best service in fixing it, also some track times from different ones (never hurts to research)

I have a PTC and it's great. No problems from the convertor itself. I broke a tranny in overdrive and broke the lock-up clutch and turbine in the convertor from the resulting shutter. PTC replaced all internals of the convertor and shipped it back in about a week. Cost me about 130 bucks.
