3200 Stall Converter, is it right for my SC?

[Mighty Thor]

My car is pretty much a daily driven car and I drive it through a slow heavy traffic. But you know once in a while :D [img]graemlins/burnout.gif[/img]

I was wondering if Edge 3200 Stall Converter be a good one for me given the situation I just mention above?

The only thing to consider is that our cars go into boost at around 3 grand and every time you go to gas it, you might be doing holeshots...lol. Ask Andre about that. A while back I "had" a 2800 stall and it was ok. 3000 also worked fine. But the 2 converters I tried were crap when it came to making power and seeing gains, so I ended up sticking with the stock converter.

Thanks Shirl. I sort of had doubts about it. I've never driven a car that had an aftermarket converter in it.

I always wonder what of difference an aftermarket converter would do to a SC car.

what?
the exhaust doesnt push enough air into the turbo to spool and make turbo power until 3000rpms?

[Shirl]

Could you clarify? (We're talking about a powerdyne not a turbo).

You will want to match the stall rpm to the rpm that you hit max boost from the PD. You want to make max use of the powerband you can. Since you have an SC, for a more streetable car, you'll want less str and more efficiency. if it's track, more str and less efficiency. Andre will set you up with a converter to match what you are looking for out of your car.

sorry, i retract my dumass question. didnt know were SC here.

whats PD?
whats holeshot?

PD is "Powerdyne" Supercharger and hole shot is basically taking off like a shot from idle (out of the hole). [img]graemlins/burnout.gif[/img]
