lx mike-My mph is usually between72.6 and 72.9. I really do think the torque converter will help but just not sure what stall to get and what manufacturer to go with. I was thinking somewhere in the neighborhood of 2500 stall to 2800. Thats considering my car is basically stock. It would be real nice to need some slicks but until I have the power to spin em, then I'll wait. The track I go to is very well kept. You can get away with a high 8 on street tires believe it or not Well, I'll say most can. I'm running it this Friday night and I'll see how the higher shift point works out. I just don't want to hurt anything.

Boosted 89-In my sig, I have the shift kit listed. The shift point idea I'll give a go as I told LX mike. I really like my stereo but those speaker boxes weight a ton. I'll probably lose 100 lbs by pulling it out. How much weight do you think your hauling over those rear tires with your speakers and amp, etc. I will let you know if it makes a difference. Bauman makes torque converters. Who sells them? I haven't heard of them before. I would like to find out about them though. From what I've heard, B&M is not too popular so I think I'll stray away from them.

Thanks for your help, James
