Protorque JRE Torque converter is worth 4-5 Tenths - Camaro5 Chevy Camaro Forum / Camaro ZL1, SS and V6 Forums

JANNETTYRACING · 08-21-2010, 10:57 AM

Protorque JRE Torque converter is worth 4-5 Tenths, and drives like a stock converter, NO additional Heat Production.

Supercharged SS just reported he stopped at Cecil County Dragway on the way home from Washington DC for a little test and tune.

Car Went 2, 10.6 ET and a 10.55 ET at 125+ MPH where his Previous best was 10.99 ET.

The ONLY Change is the Protorque JRE spec Torque converter.

Ted you keep coming up with stuff for me to put on my car. Man I need to find that money tree of mine. Just can't remember where I put it

lexlueger · 08-21-2010, 11:04 AM

Ted, Could you PM the price of the converter and install. I might scrape up a few pennies to get this done. Thanks!!

Supercharged SS · 08-21-2010, 11:28 AM

If anybody wants to drive this converter before they have Ted install it just let myself or Ted know ahead of time and I'll leave my car with Ted and you can drive it. I know some people, just as I was, are hesitant with getting a stall for fear of having crappy driveability. That's not an issue with Ted's converter. And as Ted mentioned there was no additional heat with this converter, even in stop and go traffic for 5 hours in 100+ degree heat. Best mod for the $$.

Ted, I've been trying to get a call back from Pro Torque for 3 weeks now to get info on these, I hear they are bad A.. Do you have some pull to get them? In stock? I'll take one. PM me what I need to do to get it! Oh and the price too!

Supercharged SS · 08-23-2010, 08:39 PM

I think it took mine a few weeks to get to Ted. If I remember correctly Pro Torque was waiting on something to finish it up.

That is why Protorque has Dealers Like us to handle Sales, Tech Calls and installs.

We have converters built to your specific needs, we do not have 1 size fits all shelf converters.

Protorque and Jannetty Racing have a 12 year Successful Relationship, and I have worked with many converter companies previously.

I know What I want out of a Converter and Protorque hits a HOME RUN Every Time.

Ted,

Does this TC have lockup capability?

Absolutely!

Are they multidisk or single and is the STR standard for all or are there options, if standard what is the STR? I plan on head/cam setup for my L99 (keeping VVT), would a 2800 stall suffice?

From what I just heard from my tuner 2800 would be perfect with the L99 VVT keep option...

BLWN SS · 09-04-2010, 08:50 AM

Ordered a Pro Torque from Ted along with a meth kit and a whole lot of other stuff (great sales job Ted). Cant wait to finally get in the 11's at Bandimere Speedway (7-1,1000, DA)

VADER SS L99 · 09-05-2010, 01:54 AM

What is the torque multiplication of this converter and how much power is it rated for? This one seems like the one I want since you cant tell its there. I just want one that can handle at least 650RWHP so I dont have to buy another one.
