I think I'm going to send my yank pt3600 in to loosen it up and possibly upgrade it to a multi. I thought about buying a circle d but its cheaper to have him rework it.

You work in a GM shop right? Hook up the tech II and spray that bitch outta the hole while making a log. I bet it stalls over 3600. Mine did. I will swear that after about 20-30 spray off-idle launches my old 9" stall got considerably more loose. I'm hopeing the same thing happens to my new PT3600. I think its getting there.

Yank doesn't do multi-disc. Multi = CircleD. Or others. At least that's what Dave @ Yank told me (that Yank doesn't & will not).

Not trying to be a dick here, but I have serious doubts that Circle-D is gonna rework a competitors converter...

+1. I thought of that earlier, surprised no one said anything til now. Think bout it - if there's an issue, who's on the hook?

Something sounds odd. I probably put down less power than you N/A.

I've always net better results brake stalling. Every truck is different though, but something to consider if you haven't tried.

You can tell how it flashes here.
my old tr224 short time was 1.85 ish, and the new setup in sig has been 1.91. spray setup for 3200 come on is 1.71, and a best of 1.66. my old numbers were 325/325. and I brake stall it up to about 2500-2800 on my logs, but even with spray, it only flashes to about 3300-3400. but I want to set it up for n/a more than the spray, I am only spraying a 100 shot. power doesnt come in till 3500, so I say 3800 should get me where i want to be.

truck moves out BTW!

I do work for a GM shop, but I tune with EFI live and log with efi live. I sprayed it last season, and it didnt get any looser. man it would be sweet if it did!! but it does flash 3400 tops on spray.

yes they will....I called Chris and talked to him about it. they use the front cover and the rest is circle D. Skeet had his PI done to circle D specs.
