Default Finally ordered a converter

Well after a couple of weeks of trying to decide I finally ordered a Yank SS4000. I went with it more so on future mods I plan on doing than what's done to the car right now which is really not much at all. It's pretty much stock except for a lid, fra, cm exhaust and 17' M/T drag radials are on the way. Still has the stock 3.23's in it as well. I was close to going back with a Vig since I got such great times out of my 01 with it, but for some reason decided to try the Yank. I hope I made a good choice. We'll see in about two weeks when it make it's first pass down the track.

I think you made an excellent choice. If everything people say about Yanks are true then you should be very impressed with ET loss as well as MPH gain. Be sure to post up the new numbers because I will be very interested in seeing how well you do since I too have been considering a Yank for my next converter.
