Default looking in to a fuddle converter?

2000 ws6 a4 373 normal bolt ons ran 13.1 before gears. Car is a daily driver looking into fuddle performance converter 3,500 360$ for the month of august. suspension mods tq arm, control arms parhard rod . I contacted fuddle and they said that conveter should be good for around .6 .7 in the 1/4. What are your guys opinion on this. I need this to be a reliable car so any input is appreciated. car is my daily driver

most get around .5 reduction minimum. So to say .6-.7 would be reasonable.. The car will pretty much be the same when the converter locks up (40mph and up). When your under 40 you will have to give it more gas to go the same speed as stock. So when you tap the gas it will feal mushy untill rpms reach 3,500 or so.. Youll like it, look at me i got a 3k and wish i had gone bigger. Most would agree to get atleast a 3,500 stall...

Not running one, but I've done alot of searching, and it looks like the only complaint anyone is really having is with their use of Fedex for their shipping.

Btw, I'm planning on getting one this month for the august special!
