Simple and prob dumb Q Like said in the post, but I just wanna be sure. I have a A4 camaro and am thinking of getting a higher stall converter, yet this car is my daily driver in all types of weather. But my Q is: If I get a higher stall will I lose alot of MPG? I still want to get good gas milage and possibly not lose any at all <img border="0" title="" alt="[Smile]" src="gr_stretch.gif" /> .

Re: Simple and prob dumb Q it depends how u drive, u really won't loose lots of mileage, if anything at all, if you will keep your acceleration RPMs low, like 2.5-3k, you won't loose anything...
but of course if you'll play with your new TC, u gonna loose some...
but it really feels like your car got some *****

Re: Simple and prob dumb Q hmm... alright I guess I'm saving up for a TC now! <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="gr_grin.gif" /> . I already think stock camaro's have lots of power as it is, but of course I'm gettin used to it and want more! <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="gr_grin.gif" /> . I pretty much always drive under 2,000 RPM's in thr city.

Re: Simple and prob dumb Q Just depends on how you drive ... I know there`s some loss but I haven`t noticed it.
I`m near 75th/RT. 53 see you around... and watch out for them Naperville cops... highest DUI conviction rate in the state.. if that matters <img border="0" title="" alt="[Smile]" src="gr_stretch.gif" />
