People follow trends! On this forum Yank and Vigilante are commonly thought of as the only decent choices in converters. If you do some searching you can probably find a group that things Midwest are the ****.

On this forum you will find 10 page threads about how Yank and Vig suck also. It's just personal preference/experience.

We have ran Midwest Racing Converters since day one of them getting into the LS market. We couldn't be happier. Great products and customer service.

Look at the cars in my sig.

You have to use the correct converter/parts for your application. I wouldn't use any companies $400 converters in these...

i had a midwest for a while, had no complaints about the converter at all, was a 3500 2.2, drove great on the street. stepped up to a 4000 yank and my ets/trap speed have not improved. (but i have only put about 6-8 passes on the yank so i may need more time to experiment with it)
