Default performance motor sport PRO TORQUE CONVERTER

I had the pro torque converter installed last night on my stage 3 stillen and the car in the tiptronic mode is a monster. It launches the Z like a bullet. The g force's are incredable. The stall is around 2900. It pins you back in the seat and it works well with the stillen VB. The shift are quick and fast. I also have 3.53 gear in the rear end and first gear is a blur. Its over real quick. The difference between the stock converter and the pro torque is like night and day. The car has some serious acceleration now with my next mods. slicks, rims, ported blower and the stillen stage 4 kit. it should run low 12's.
The SC has some time to wind up and with the converter the rush of power is instant. Its not to bad for daily driving and it runs just like the stock unit.
I would like to thank Nick at Performance Motor sports for his help with this product. His service was great and I look forward to letting them build my new block next year.
Target is 750 RWHP or more.

$1217.45 CDN. Instalation done in Canada. It would be alot less if done in the USA. Worth every penny as the car is now a very fast. Will post 1/4 mile times in late June.
For price on converter call Nick at perforamance motor sports. Its listed on there web site, tell him you spoke to the F1 stillen from Canada.

Congrats on the tq converter. I hope you plan on upgrading from s/c to TT because that a pretty high goal for a s/c on the VQ35.

You only plan on low 12's with that much power? Guys are running high 12's NA....With some big tires you should be mid 11's imo even if you are auto.

Sounds like it's going to be a monster. The JWT TT makes some crazy tq numbers.
