Default Who has a Thruster Pro 4000? Whatcha Think?

I picked one up, am I going to notice much of a difference going from the Super Thruster 3800 to the Thruster Pro 4000?

Let the flood gates open!

may feel a hair looser. you'll gain some on the top end; it's a good highway racing converter.

Nice upgrade. On throttle tip-in, you will notice the Pro Thruster being a little looser than the Super Thruster, but it's definitely something you can live with. You will most surely find an advantage when racing from a roll. If I upgrade to another converter (12th?) it will be a TP4000.

I had a Vig 3200 before the tp4k i have now. At first i was sent a UT4600 and was very pissed off at Yank. Nwo i have a TP 4000 and i lov eit. I highly recommend this verter. I was told two different things after the restall form miscommunication between Mike and Carrie but aside of the bitching this CONVERTER ROCKS.

With that said i am now a happy Yank customer and take back all that i said previous to the current converter i have now. <img border="0" alt="[Firebird]" title="" src="graemlins/formula.gif" />

With your N20 use.. I would think about a PYE 3600. It will be a little slower on the motor ... but Rock on the gas!

LOL! Mike got him another Yank converter. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Smile]" src="gr_stretch.gif" /> The PT converters KICK ***! I still have to smile when I nail it on the highway with my PT4400. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="gr_grin.gif" /> Let's not forget the nice 60' times either. If my car was a daily driver or had 3.23's, I'd have the PT4000. I'm already working on getting L.G. Motorsports to carry the Yank converters. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Smile]" src="gr_stretch.gif" />
