So my car is in the shop getting the tc in and im just wanting some feedback from some ppl. How much of a difference could you tell after getting a new tc? Whats the thing you notice the most that just makes getting a stall so great?

 

Just enjoy it. Drive easy for 500 miles then jump on it..

 

drive easy for 500?
why?

 

That's ridiculous. You just need to get it good and heated up/cooled down a few times. Then let it rip. These "break it in" People always have these magic mile markers. What do they think people with trailer cars do?

 

night and day, the best mod i have done, i did have to get it tuned though.

 

The breakin is for the lockup clutch..

 

The hardest part is getting the grin off your face the first time you drive it.......you will love it.

 

don't be upset if you first try to pull away and think you made a huge mistake.when i went from a stock verter to 3600 fuddle. i was going for my first ride and went back in and told them there was something wrong,the car wouldn't move .they laughed and told me to go for a ride.it felt like the tranny was slipping.15 min. later i came back with an ear to ear grin.the vig will be a little tighter than a fuddle.the verter was the best mod i've done yet

 

there is a breakin but I think it is 150 miles

 

I bought the same converter, it goes to 3600. Have fun, you'll drop a good half second off your quartermile time. I dropped a bit over 7 tenths with my converter and header install.

You'll freak a bit at first, but after the first couple days, or the first full throttle blast through the gears you'll have a hard time wiping the grin off your face. Street tires are a joke with a converter.

 

I have the same converter and would never own a f-body with out one again. dropped .4 tenths with crappy nittos

 

i love my Vig3200. i dropped around 4 tenths before the cam.

 

What you will notice the most is the car stays in the 2 to 3k range until you get to like 48mph and then lock up. If you are cruising at around 30 - 35 and give it some gas it goes now. Instead of cruising at 1k and waiting to get the rpms up to pass someone or just put a grin on your face the car just acts like it has been hammered back down into 1st and goes.

 

How much is the shop charging for install?


Does it really need to be tuned?
