Re: Conveter, gears , or both????? Sup Josh, I think most people are trying to decide on one or the other becuase they can't afford both and want to know what will net the most gain. <img border="0" alt="[cheers]" title="" src="graemlins/gr_cheers.gif" />

Re: Conveter, gears , or both????? i think J hit the nail on the head....converters are done more frequently b/c they are proven to drop ET's anywhere from 4/10s to 9/10s depending on driver/tires/track conditions. but ultimately doing both would give better results depending on your vehicle's application. i personally did a shift kit with the converter and am much happier with that than redone gears. good luck to you in whatever route you go.

Re: Conveter, gears , or both????? I did both at the same time but once you have a good converter in there gears really don't have as much effect that they'd have if you still had the stock verter in there. Moving this up for the converter experts to enlighten us <img border="0" title="" alt="[Razz]" src="gr_tounge.gif" /> <img border="0" title="" alt="[Wink]" src="gr_images/icons/wink.gif" />
