A6 Capability
Hey guys,
So I just traded my M6 ZL1 for an A6 ZL1 and was wondering how much power/torque can these transmissions hold? What is the most you've seen out there? Also, I was looking at buying an upgraded converter. Does a stall converter really liven these autos up? I was looking at a Yank 2800. Does anyone else have a different opinion on brand? Appreciate the input! Thanks

Probably hold 800 HP with a good tune.
The stock converter can't be beat. |

Why the trade?
You'll have to have your Avatar name updated.

My main goal is drag racing and you can't out shift an automatic. I have had manuals all my life and want to try out this auto thing. Frankly I'm just getting tired of shifting!! Hahaha
How do you update the name? That was the only thing I couldn't figure out.

I'm running 714 rwhp through a stock SS trans. But it won't hold forever, lol

I'm at 700-750 whp in my auto and after 700 passes and 49,000 miles my trans is finally having issues. We are pulling it tomorrow to see what is hurt. I have a 2600 stall Yank TC in my car and I love it.

Sorry to hear your trans is on the outs...that stinks! How big of a difference did you notice after you put the converter in? Did it launch a lot harder?

I'm sure you have to contact the admin or something. I searched all through the settings and preferences and couldn't find anything.

I had mine changed by sending a PM to one of the administrators and the person who helped me was Tran.

Trans owes me nothing with what I've put it through! We did the converter at the same time as we upped the boost and put a cam in so was hard to tell what gave me the most improvement. After we did those mods I went 10.6. Since then I have got down to 9.82 and a best 60' of 1.36. It launches pretty good. I usually launch at 1500-1700 rpm.
