I would go with one that has been tried, tested and proven by forum enthusiast, such as the Yank, Pro Torque or the Vigalante.

:iagree:

I also have not heard anything bad about TCIs converters. They are quite popular with the F.body guys, I have not heard of any C5 owners using a TCI converter.

I can get a custom built Tci for $429, and a Yank for a C5 is $850. I don't like markups just for having a vette. I never heard of a Yank until I got on the forum but Tci has always been in my summit and jegs mags.

Yank for a F-body is about the same price as for a C5. You get what you pay for.
