What's your experience driving around town at lights, stop signs, traffic and so on? I'm kind of on the fence of getting one just because of normal driving experience.

A low stall speed and tight converter won't be much different than stock. As you go up in how loose it is and stall speed you will have to go deeper into the throttle before lock-up to have the car move.

It depends on your set up. i run a 5c on the street (waiting for the track to open) but the driving characteristics are awesome, the car is much more willing to accelerate hard but even part throttle its very smooth. Wot holshot is wild and crazy i love it. The better your tune is the better its street manners are. I have no complaints. I have stage 3 cams which everyone knows they take away some low end torque but the stall speed erases that feel. It feels like i have an extra 50ftlbs of low end torque. You no longer have to be on the fence, jump over it and go swimming in the pool of beastly accelleration, you will love it.

I had both 4c and 5c on my old car. Had no issues whatsoever daily driving it. It was barely noticeable on the street but man it sure made a difference at the track.

Have a 3b in my current ride and don't even know it's there.

So if I get a Torque Converter ( like a 3c ) I have to get it retuned ? I have 15 GT Procharger PS1 Stg. 2 , KOOKS LTH , Lund tuned.

Did/do you ever drive in the snow? If so how was it?

Actually I got stuck in that shit show a few years ago in Atlanta where it shut everything down for a few days. I had no issues in the snow. The right tire will make all the difference in the snow.

What tire you running in winter? I just picked up some Nokian, but haven't run them in the snow yet.
