Here is my experiences with fuddle and what I've realized......
The following was done after I killed the TCI 3000 stall I ran for a year. This is a comparison between the TCI, the performance series fuddle, and the highperformance/truck series fuddle
I started off with a basic performance series converter(3600 stall). This stall was WAY too loose for me. It absolutely killed my top end mph and it died in a few months due to a hand full of races and a few short trips to work and back(never sprayed with this converter).....This converter just doesn't seem built to withstand the pressures of both the weight of a truck and everyday driving temps
Now I have the highperformance/truck converter(3200 stall). This converter is MUCH tighter and gave me my mph back. It's been hit with everything I could throw at it(It was in Goshawks truck for several 100-200 shots of nitrous, as well as mine with a ton of nitrous use). Converter is acting perfect and hasn't giving me any signs of trouble. The cost is more, but you definately get alot more converter for your money.
I've seen alot of complaints about the basic performance series converters(being too loose, losing top end mph). My old roommate has a 3400 performance series in his TA, and it just doesn't pull at all on the big end. It comes out like a champ though......
I wouldn't buy another performance series converter, but I have no complains with the highperformance/truck series.
