0.43 second gain with the FTI 3200 Billet Torque Converter. Special thanks to SC2150 (Tracy at Team RX) for hooking me up (literally).

Now that 0.43 included some minor tuning, (more on that in a second), but basically it's a solid 4/10ths gain.

The first run of the day was a 12.5x @ 109.x with a 1.7x 60-foot. But there was a large "gulp" on the 1-2 shift. I looked at the logs, and for some reason, the throttle position dropped to 40% for almost 4/10ths of a second - during the shift. So I lengthened the shift-time on the 1-2 shift by 0.125 seconds. That seemed to do the trick, and along with some timing tweeks to get rid of KR, I brought it down to the 12.413 @ 110.18, 7.965 @ 87.52, 1.713 60'.

All the runs of the day were in the 12.4 to 12.5 range, all the 60's were 1.7's. I was extremely pleased to break 110 on the traps.

Mods this far are:
Fastlane Pipeline CAI, Borla Touring Cat-back, High-flow JBA midpipes, FTI 3200 Torque Converter.
