Default New TCI convertors or good ole YANK???

Well i have finally made the decision to remove my sloppy VERY INEFFICIENT Fuddle in favor of something else....been gauging interest in the new TCI Max efforts from TSP for the appealing price.......but an appealing price is what got me what i have ... so...3700 TCI or 3600 YANK...anyone had a comparison yet??

Hijacking a thread maybe but I would suggest the NEW PerformaBuilt converters around the 3500 to 4000 range

Yeah, what he said. Go with a Yank! Didn't see many other listed on that link. When in doubt, YANK it!

If there is something wrong with your fuddle, have it refreshed for FREE. That is what a good warranty is for

well i actually thought about refreshing it......but i dont think theres anything worn or broken, just seems to be very inefficient up top and all over......seems like ALOT of people have had similar experience with Fuddle and have picked up alot with a Yank or similar convertor. I just know there is a ton more potential left in my ole TA...

I'm totally in love with my YANK 4000.

I picked up 5 mph in the 1/8th over the fuddle.
