PTC converters

I bought a PTC converter from Dusty. He set me up with a 3200, and it was too loose. That was appearent from the first trip to the track. Dusty took a look at the numbers and decided we needed to tighten it up. I sent it back in for the restall. Now it is a 2800 and feels great. It is a night and day difference. I don't have any track time to back this up yet, but I can tell.

Thanks Dusty I appreciate all the help

My customer in California called today and said he picked up over 3 mph at 400 less rpm using Dusty's convertor!

I hope so I spoke with Dusty last night. I really cant wait to get the car to the track. I have some tuning to do, before I am ready to put some more passes down. The first trip to the track with the 3200 was a let down. I was off a few mph from last year even. Once Dusty got all the facts he said there was nothing wrong with the combo other than the converter. HE WAS 100% RIGHT!!! Just that little tweak with the converter made such a difference. That thing is so on right now I can't believe it!! I just can't get over what a difference it made. I really cant wait to get to the track now. I just might reach my goal of that low 11 sec timeslip. I really couldn't be happier to post anything from 11.30-11.50 on DR's. I know I'm close now!
