Hi Gang,

 

Long time lurker, first time poster. Been re-searching higher stall converters for the BTR in my BA mk2 in the hunt for better 1/4 mile times.

 

I've had a poke around but can't seem to find a direct answer. If I install say, a 2800 converter, will the car go into limp mode? Will it need to the ECU re-flashed? Anything else to look out for?

 

Also, it's soon to be running 300rwkw, with the usual upgrades. With a 275 drag radial, will that get it into the 11's (with practice) do we think?

 

Thanks for your help!

 

it probably won't go into limp mode, but it will require a re-tune to take advantage of the higher converter stall properly for the better launch etc.

 

300rwkw will be pushing on the door of 11's, yeah

Awesome, thanks for the quick reply! 

 

ok, was asking because I don't want to pay twice for tuning/dyno time, though I'll have to wait until we're allowed out anyway! then wait more until track opens!

how did you get on with the high stall ?  mine with stock converter and 300kw runs 12.9
