Where should i go from here??

[mharring]

wondering what direction i should go now? S partan tuner, arp studs, intake and exhaust. Im wanting to do something to help my transmission hold the power. What kind of mods can i do to the trans to deal with the added power and torque of the tuner? Performance valve body or torque converter. How long can that transmission hold up the added power. Ill be running a 215 tune or less. Or does anything need to be done to hold up to that power level?

a converter is always a good reliability/power adding mod .

 

[mharring]

What type and where?? Or do a custom build. I know a guy lol

DPC or Precision converters are the top 2 for us 6.4 guys. I personally am a DPC guy. Phil the owner, is a cool guy to deal with.

I run a Precision Ind. I have no issues with it in the 10k miles I've had it so far...i also have a Midwest diesel competition package 5R Trans so....different story ha

I have an RCD converter, which I understand was made by Precision Industries to RCD specs. Drives great, truck is drastically transformed. No more blowing through the stock converter, even with mild tunes (the 475-500hp tunes from the tuners out there). I drove on a 500hp rated tune for years on a stock trans/stock converter...probably still would be on stock trans but if a family member did not break the trans by accident.

This has been in the truck for years now and probably nearly 50,000 miles. You actually are able to use the torque the vehicle makes.

I swear I have seen the stock converter as the first failure on the 5R110W, as it slips. But, how are the OE clutches behind that? My guess barely hanging on also with the bigger tunes.

Maybe it helps, maybe not. Happy New Year.

Website? Number?

Dpc website should be something like dieselperformanceconverters.com. Phone # is on there. Phil is typically the one who answers the phone and can answer any of your questions.

I would get better tunes if you want the Trans to live...

^whs. you won't hurt that trans with just those mods. I had all that and drop in turbos and beat the piss out of it and the trans never skipped a beat. But I was running good custom tunes from GH.

Custom tunes and traction bars.
