well there hardcore (forgive me I dont remember your name from the meet) your a.t. mods will improve shift feel aka clutch engagement, how ever the torque converter I assume is for higher rpm lockup.... if your draggin with it, maybe itll help. in the future pick up a stick

torque converter is what a clutch is to a manual transmission. If you have a auto transmission you most likely have a torque converter.
