I'm thinking about changing my converter but i'm not sure which one (stall speed) to go with? i've got the a4 with 3.73's. Its my daily baby so i dont want to get to radical but want ot pick up my et's a little...? any suggestions?

 

With the 373s you don't have to worry too much about having a loose converter so a 3500 stall would probably do ya good. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Smile]" src="gr_stretch.gif" /> Th PI 3200 stalls a little higher than that but its very streetable. Lot of people say that the SY 3500 w/373 is a killer combo but I can't help ya there. Have you driven a car with high stall converter yet so that you understand how it handles?

 

no i haven't. thats one big reason i was asking yyou guys. i also want something that i can throw in and not have to worry about reprogramming the computer.

 

Vig3200 or SY3500 with the 3.73's will do well either way for street/strip performance.

i personally use the vig3200 on the 3.73's along with the transgo shift kit on the 2nd washer setting and it does well at the track for what i have done, and isnt as loose as the SY3500, which becomes bothersome in stop and go traffic....

and on the street i havent been disappointed either when im on the nittos

 

Yup. Yank ST-3500.

If you decide to go with a Vig. Go with the 3200.

 

Whatever converter you get, don't use street tires. At least get some Nittos for the back otherwise your traction will be poop. The ST3500 + 373s + street tires = big ol smoke screen. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="gr_grin.gif" />

 

Nitto's? for all the time or just at the track? if the track, thats cool cause's i already use DR's....

 

You can use them all the time. Rain is no problem for Nittos however driving with them in snow is like <img border="0" alt="[whiner]" title="" src="graemlins/gr_cry.gif" />

 

i have the 315 nittos and i still spin them like nothing with the vig 3200. i would hate to imagine if i didnt <img border="0" title="" alt="[Eek!]" src="gr_eek2.gif" />

 

The Vig 3200 is a great converter, but if I had 3.73's I'd look at the SY4000.

 

I have the SY3500 w/3.23 IMO it is not a big deal on the stall. If you notice a lot of guys that had stalls of 2800,3000,and 3500 go bigger after a while. The 3500 is great but I still think I could handle a little more but I am not complaining. Take your time and make a good choice.

Good luck <img border="0" title="" alt="[Cool]" src="gr_images/icons/cool.gif" />

 

For street/strip action I would go with the Vig 3200. I've had one in my wife's TA for a couple of years now with no problems. 60's are great on drag radials and street manors are very good. Heck I get in it after driving my car and think man this car need a converter. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="gr_grin.gif" /> You can't go wrong with either that one or the Yank ST3500. Good luck...

 

vig 3200 wirh nitto's. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="gr_grin.gif" />

 

Street tires or mostly street/stoplight racing, go with the SY 3500. For regular track visits, go with the ST-3500.
