Question - Converter Lockup

[Sinister-CO]

Hey Torrie. Is it possible in your tunes to command the converter to lockup under WOT at a set point, say 80 mph? There was another thread on here I was reading through about stall converters and while they help with sixty foot times, they can definitely slow you down on the top end. One way to combat that is the WOT lockup. Thanks!

Yes I have the ability to alter converter lock / unlock in all gears.

Sweet! Have you played around with that at all on your tunes? It would definitely help anyone who wants a little higher stall but I'm curious if there's any benefit with a stock converter. I assume there's no way to make that user configurable?

[tmcphail]

Control for those regions are in areas that I have access to only. 

[Sinister-CO]

So have you done any testing with that? Are there any gains with a stock converter?

[tmcphail]

I have been adjusting those regions for a variety of reasons over a decade. A good majority of people non adjustment is fine and further changes are not required unless I am significantly shifting what occurs within transmission function.
