Aftermarket Torque Converter for P5?
hey guys!
my friend who has a WRX in auto tranny said that pretty much all the WRXer's first mod was a torque converter because apparently it boosted low end acceleration by a LOT... now I was just wondering if you guy know whether or not upgrading the torque converters in our cars will make much of a difference and who manufacturs them for our cars?
here's a link to the guys who make the WRX one:

the guy i talked to said it would... and it comes with a warranty so i guess if your tranny gets hooped, they're gonna hafta get me a new one!
but i dunno... i'm still debating whether or not a higher stall speed is worth $565....
