10.87@124 - 2016 GT w/ Simple mods.

Went to OSW the other night to test out the new FTI Performance 4000 torque converter. Was pleasantly surprised with a 1.50 then 1.48 sixty foot time.

My car is a 2016 GT base auto with 3.55 gear option.

-2018 intake manifold ported by Bret Barber and additional port work by me.
-95mm ZR1 corvette throttle body
-JLT 120mm CAI
-LTH 2" Longtubes with Roush Catback
-FTI 4000 converter
-PBD E85 tune

-BMR Kmember and bumper bars
-Viking front and rear shocks
-BMR CB010
-TBM heavy duty front drag brakes
-Billet specialties 18"F and 17" rear drag pack (28" tires front and rear)

-Corbeau driver set / rear seat delete

Track was very busy. Only got 2 passes. Shift points were only 7300 and converter was unlocked for the full passes. Plenty left in it, will find time to tweak and improve.

How is the drive ability on that throttle body and how did you connect that up?

I'm interested to see how locking the converter affects your slips. I did some accidental experimenting with the converter on my car a few years back and found that leaving it unlocked until 6500 in 4th yielded 3-4mph and .3-.4 vs locking it on the 2-3 shift.

My current tuner claims that was unlikely and will not give me a tune without the converter locking on the 1-2 shift.
