You may have to try adding more brakes on the back to help hold it work
My old pump gas Duster with the custom built 10 inch converter would push the locked up front 165x15 inch radials VW tires through the lights at 2300 RPM whiney
I broke that converter and put in a T/A 8 inch race Hemi SS type converter and it went .2 ET quicker in the 1/8 mile and almost 2 MPH faster shock Way easier to drive at the track and on the street up
Being in Brazil your facing a lot more problems in dealing with race parts made here in the U.S.A. than we do. Good converters are a great help in making the cars faster and better.
Bad converters are worthless, a total waste of money and your time on changing them, been there, done that puke whiney shruggy
Don't buy a cheap converter or used "good race converter" unless you know it will work in your car like you want it to twocents"


Yes Cab, I think you've got the point perfectly. I have to play with whatever I have in hands. Changing converter / adding a transbrake it´s not an option now.

Prior to this turbo engine that I'm building, engine had some dry nitrous on it. Perhaps I can also use a small shot of nitrous on the first 3 seconds just after the low RPM launch to help 60" and to help spooling the big turbo quicker.

I know that´s a band-aid but it´s already installed.


BR,
