Default TCI Converter?

I was just wanting to ask if anyone ran this brand of converter? How does it compare to the bigger companies like Yank and Vig.? Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks,
Ryan

Mine has worked perfectly for 2 1/2 years, 20,000 miles, and many track passes. A lot of guys have complained about problems with them, especially with lock-up clutch failure. I recommend running a Transgo shift kit to minimize the risk of that problem.

Over 2 years and 20k miles on mine, I have never had a problem. I would buy another one without hesitation.

1 1/2 yrs 10K miles no problems. This is my first stalled auto car so I can't really give a comparison.

TCI is a good company they have indeed been around for years and are probably a bigger seller than any of the converter manufacturers here. Of course that would probably be why you would here a few more complaints since you sell more volume and of course percentage wise you will have more problems come up , Personally though I would suggest you take a look at ours .
Thanks
