I see most everyone opts for some all out billet race trans when they do a trans I see very little about a stage 1 type build.
Long story short I believe my POS PI converter lost lock up. I have changed the TCC solenoid, inspected harness, everything checks out and 200 bux later I have the same damn problem of no lock up. Fluid was pretty clean after 35K miles and a little fuzz is all on the magnet. The trans was gone through at ford 35K ago under warranty and basically completely freshened up. So at that time I decided to install a billet input shaft and PI converter, now I am here wondering if I should just throw a mildly stock upgraded trans in (stage 1 type) or just send the converter in for repair and either put it back in or put a stock one back in and sell the PI.
The truck is stock turbo, injectors, etc.....I will most likely be sticking with my tow tune from windrunner as my daily driver tune as well. Truck runs strong enough for my liking and its my daily driver so dependability far outshines performance. But I have find my performance are finicky and because of this I have to learn how to drive them and usually I dont go WOT I find myself 3/4+ throttle. With the tow tune - I can drive it like I stole it and it runs good so it seems like a no brainer.
Advice on the best stage 1 rebuilder out there? On my plan of attack?
Thanks!
