Well it's been forever since I updated this thread but I now need recommendations on which torque converter to go with!! Ive spoken with ATI and I'm leaning toward there blown and fuel 9" piece.Only down side is he said it will be really slow on motor alone.He said it launch then pretty much want all the nitrous I can throw at it.Said street driving will be fine tho.So from expierence is any kind of compromise that's reasonable because I would like Na performance as well if possible,if not I'd rather go all out.I haven't been able to make it to the track this year but from my street passes I can tell the converter is really holding this car back. Thx for any input

Well those guys know what their taking about, and he's right.. You can find a happy medium between spray and motor, but it's not gonna be great here and great there.. Decide what's more important.. Converters are easy to swap so go all motor and when your ready slam another one in and let er rip

I had mine built at A-1 in Vancover Wa. They nailed it to the wall first shoot. I gave up the N/A hole shot for the N2O efficentcy on the top end. It went 4,100 on the Brake N/A and flashed to 5,700 when i hit the juice. Loggs show 4-5% going through the trapps at 7,100

Yeah i called them first because I no a few of my buddies run them.Charlie said I was right on the edge with my power level.He said if were all motor he would the 8" but with the spray I have to run a 9" fuel and blown converter.Didn't tell me stall yet just said it would be tight na and flash really well off the brake and nitrous.

Yep, with any size shot at all, you'll blow through that 8" really bad.
I'm running their Treemaster which I bought second hand and is just a shade tight for my NA setup. It flashes to 4200-4400. Just playing with the 100-shot it flashes to 5800-6000. I wouldn't even think of running it behind a stroker and a decent sized shot.
