Final converter decision

Mike_W · 03-19-2002, 01:36 PM

So will it be:
1) 9" Multiplier - from Precision Converter - $549 (reg. $795) - 5 year full warrenty and then lifetime half price.
2) 9 1/2" Stallion - from Precision Industries - $729 - 2 year
3) 10" - from TCT - $795 (he said $895, but for me $795, gee that makes me feel special.) - lifetime (not sure about details, guy sounded shady)

All the converters have similar features, so unless I here anything bad from you guys, i'm going with the "Multiplier".

My vore is #1. But it, if you dont like it, (I assume you mean by lifetime half price you get stuff for half price know on) sell it and buy a different one.

Well, I have to say that I love my PI stallion converter. I got a 3000 lock-up. It is awesome. It weights nothing compaired to the stock converter. I got it from Houston Performance for $689. It is built to order and you can have it in 4-5 days. Hope this helps.

Very nice list but...

I highly recommend another. Edge Racing converters are custom made to your application, and they are super high quality!

The site is in my sig, visit their site and shoot them an e-mail. Tell Andre your combo, and what you are looking for.

Cheers,

Edge racing looks pretty nice and a decent price too. I'll call them later. I called PI just now, and that guy wasn't to helpfull at all. In fact he was rather rude, telling me that his competitors are telling me stuff that does'nt matter (like everything inside converter!) I said that he only had a 2 year warrenty, and he said "ONLY! thats more than my competitors." And I said "well P.C. offers a five year and TCT offers a lifetime. He replied "well... we will restall 1 time for free during the warrenty". I sadly reported to him that most people I talk to run the stallion.

I had a PI Stallion in my old car. Made a world of difference. They were helpful with any questions that I had. My vote is for the Stallion

I'll log another vote for PI. I don't know who you talked to, but the tech's I've spoken with have been very helpful. It's hard to beat PI for quality product, although the price is a bit high. Another one to look at is Lentech at http://www.lentechautomatics.com.
