7 AT First Mod

Z eliminator · 01-06-2011, 09:39 PM

I just got the GTM 7 AT torque converter installed today.
It started to snow on the way home so i could not put any major power to it to see how much better it is than the stock one.
Here are some pictures. It took 4.4 hours.

What are the benefits of an upgraded torque converter and how much did it cost you?

Mainly a better launch RPM. It allows you to hold a higher RPM before the car starts to move, allowing for a better launch.

# 4 is draining the stock converter.

Cool cool. So what is the stall on this one? 3800?

Do not know yet could not test it (snowing outside) I want to let it break in for 200km before i test it under load. Also want to recheck tranney fluid levels after 100km to make sure its full. We used 6 qt's of tranney fluid . It drove ok.
It supose to be around 2900 rpm.
