i dont go to the track all that much and like the feel of the stock converter...especially with the blower. mileage is not a concern...only drive it a few hundred miles a month. more about getting the 6.0 drone down a little at 70ish mph. hell...maybe put in a t-56 and keep the 4.10s hahaha

I have 3:42s' and a Radix and absolutely love the setup. A stock Maggi tune with Corsa and vette servo on OE tire size.
