I put one in my truck on my latest build. I have like 4 miles on it and I can hear a bit more whine, but it may be more blower than converter. I havent noticed much difference in the way it drives though.

Default Whine
Did you figure out your whine?

Pump whine is what I heard from a truck I rode in when deciding what converter to use in my build. That whine wont hurt a thing if you decide on a little better converter than stock truck converter.

Are ya'll still liking your convertors???? Seems Like the little bump in stall seed would help a whole lot in my AWD truck on the street. And you can't beat the price.

Mine works exactly as i would expect with a slightly higher stall speed than stock and otherwise is completely imperceptible to the original converter.

Too small a change to be worth the work and $$?
