blowing through converter?
blowing through converter? i have a performabuilt 3600 stall 2.5 str torque converter and i'm running 125 dry nano shot.
my vert is pretty heavy as is and the trunk has about 50-60lb of tools in it. driver could stand to lose a couple pounds too... all this weight isn't helping.
if i mash the gas from a roll and RPM flashes to about 4800rpm, then i activate the nitrous, it seems to jump to about 5100rpm or so..
at this high of an rpm i can certainly feel the nitrous, but i think by having it slip so much i'm missing some torque.
of course if i activate the spray at about 4000 or so, i get a much bigger kick. i rarely get a chance to activate that low though due to traction issues and shift extensions taking me to higher RPM.
should i get a different stall for the spray or is this fine? any other 125 shot stalled guys care to share experiences on spraying from a roll?

Is it an off the shelf converter? If so it is probably designed for a certain HP range in a certain weight vehicle and your car is making more power and is heavier than it it setup for. Call them and tell them what issues you are having and have them setup a converter for YOUR car. Most people don't realize how much they are leaving on the table by running an off the shelf converter, especially with nitrous.
