There are several shops on here that campaign road course cars that would be the ones to ask on that. Different shops have different specialties even though we all "do it all", some just have that special area of performance where someone there excels like in medicine (brain surgeon doesn't do the best knee replacement, but all are good doctors).

The Vig 3200 makes for a pretty good street/strip trade-off.

If you haven't already raised your part throttle shift points, do it when you put in your converter and that will help take some of the looseness out of the converter.

I will put ours against the Vig or Yank (we have run, sold, installed all for years) any day....and will buy it back if it does not outperform either. I don't think there is anybody on here with the cummulative drag racing experiance we have, and our FTI's are the best we have ever run period. Vig & Yank are great products, but what we have takes the best aspects of both for one awesome result.
