I hope that this thing is worth it now. Nothing like adding power or performance, and then negating that with adding weight. Oh well.

The reason the converter is heavier is because it is a beefer,HD and stronger verter than most companies.

How is the quality of workmanship. I'd love to see the guts of one of their tc's. Anyone got any pictures of this? I'd like to see the workmanship on the internals, alas, there are no pictures on the website to give any decent impressions.

This is just a follow up message. I have driven my car now for a few days with the TCS 4400 and this converter rocks. I really liked the vig 3200 I took out to put this converter in. I am extremely happy this converter. Around town the car drives great. the higher flash and shift extension feel great. I still havent had a good set of tires on the car but I am expecting great things now. I was worried about the weight difference but that doesnt seem to be a problem at all. I would highly recomend this converter. If your thinking about it Just Do It ! You wont be sorry.

If you have any questions just ask

Jeremy

I don't have any pictures but I have seen the guts compared to a Y@#% converter, and I don't think anyone would buy anything else if they saw them. Maybe Derek will be able to post some pictures.
