MS-75 Regular Location: Adelaide Registered: June 2002	Re: sport compact classes Thu, 14 April 2005 23:52 Hey chris, I was thinking about your converter speed yesterday, and my suggestion would be to actually have it dynoed with the stock converter in there before you choose a stall speed. The reason is that dynoing cars with largeish converters is difficult, and when they are turboed it's even worse. With a bigber converter, as soon as the operator loads up the rollers, the car flashes out to stall speed, hits the converter, loads up the motor and brings the boost on-all in about 3 seconds. This means the car jumps into the torque band almost instantly and torches the tyres on the rollers-making tuning it as it comes on boost quite difficult. HOWEVER, this instant torque hit is of course exactly what you want at the strip. (I found this when I first went to a big stall auto for the 5M). The best way to do it is to dyno with the stock converter so you get a good, progressive power delivery to the dyno for ease of tuning, and also note where the boost threshold is, and then have a converter built with a stall just above the boost threshold. It'll cost a little more for the converter change post dyno, but it'll be worth it for the well tuned end result. How close is the Corona Of Death to turning a tyre in anger?
