I just emailed edge racing converters asking about the mild street converter. When they email back I might ask them if it sounds like my converter is bad. Someone over at tocca said it sounds like engine problems.

I replaced one of them. That was over a year ago. I got an 02 code, or atleast I think I did.

I just emailed edge racing converters, asking them if it sounds like a converter problem. They probably think I am an idiot asking them to solve my problem

I scanned for codes again and got 136. That is left o2 sensor indicates lean condition. I might be able to look at real good tommorow. I will update if I find out the problem

I still haven't fixed my problem. I have to check fuel pressure and replace the IAT sensor is the next steps.

Is that with the vaccum disconneted or connected? I can spin my tires from a stop no problem... Anytime, everytime.

And dont waste your time on the mild street edge. I had it. While it was a great tq and i felt a minor difference, if your going to do it, do it right and get a street edge 2,800-3000.

that was connected. Haynes manual says 30-45, if I am reading that right. I will probably end up getting the street edge, but not right now.

where you having the exact problems, including bad gas mileage? I am wanting to get a new tq converter, like a PI multi disc, its just out of my range. I will probably get a street edge, but I want to get a newer 4r70w too. If I knew for a fact that this was the problem I would do it.

Well I used to think this was the problem too, but my engine also runs rich when it runs crappy. Only when its hot. Or the engine heats up. Grr. When its a cool night holy freakin crap the car is a beast.
