Installed my converter today!

Got the Vig 2800 in my 05 Vette today and it feels freakin awesome! Iam still running the 2.73 gears but the bog out of the hole is gone! Iam shooting for high 11's before I do a gear change. I ran a 12.4 at 113 sat so I think with the convert and a Dyno tune this week I might be real close when I go back to the track friday night.Cant wait to see what it does after the tune and converter.

Hell no! Yesterday at the track on the street tires without the converter it would not hook when I stalled it up. I tried flashing the converter and launching off the brake, off idle flashing the converter no tire spin. With it stalled up on a VERY sticky track it would just spin a little out of the hole.My car already has Dynotech LT's with x pipe and cats, Magnaflow mufflers, and a Vararam. Now it smokes the street tires at will from a stop or anything below about 20-25 mph. I know it wont hook at the track with these tires anymore but thats why I have DR's on my spare rims.
