What TCS converter? or do you mean TCI?

Is the 3800 TC hard on the tires or would drag radials handle?

Thanks.

its a TCS(phoenix)converter. they are a sponsor, but you have to order it through rapid motorsports who is also a sponsor. both Derek(TCS) and Mikey(rapid) are great guys to deal with. my TCS will be here in a week <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="gr_grin.gif" />

Yes, it's TCS. This is the converter I run in my car and I sware by them. We have had no problems with them and cars running these over competitors are consistently picking up 60' times over the competitors stuff and not loosing top end. That's exactly what happened to me. I went a 1.299 60' and 137 MPH with a 4.33 gear.

Here's a link for more info:

Hope this helps...
