Default Anyone run a T.C.S phoenix converter

I was just wondering if any of you run a T.C.S PHEONIX converter and what you think of them. I am trying to decide on a converter and this is one on the list. Any input would be greatly appreciated.

I know a couple guys with them and they are pretty happy with them. If I didn't run a Yank, they would be next on my list.

I need a converter for my LS1, its my first mod and have been hearing a lot of good things about the Phoenix converter. I check on mike’s car at Rapid Motor sports WOW!
If that converter can help his car pull times like that I’m going to try it.

I have one that I'm running in my th400. Phoenix has been more than helpful and didn't think twice about letting me it restalled and get an STR correction on it. They are built with much better parts than some of the "other" famous converters. You'd be suprised if you opened one up.
