Undertuned due to a weak Torque converter.
11PSi only, break in tune.

Wow! That looks super clean. Very nice. So, are you going to drop in a new torq converter next, or let your bank account recover? Once again, nice job.

Factory Tech said that the torque converter was a 3 plate and it's not. That's a single plate. Factory Tech also said the Monster Box 4R75W and Total Domination TC can handle any power you can throw on it. They also offer a 2 years warranty for labor and parts.

As you can see the TC can not survive with that power levels and now it's up to Factory Tech to honor their name and provide me a transmission and TC capable to support the engine power.

Remember that this is a break in tune and if the converter was ok, JIM Sr. told me that that he had around 50hp/80trq left on the table with the same 11psi.

My plans for after the break in period(1500 miles) is to push the envelope and run maximum boost with a safe tune for 93 octane gas. That probably will be something around 17-19PSI and 650RWHP/750RWTQ.

The new torque converter will have to be a really strong piece but that's a problem to Factory Tech now.

After reading the pages and pages of posts on this project I'm finally glad to see everything is working out for you and can't wait until you get that new TC
