I have a full SLP set up on my auto, with a catted X. I've only scraped once, and have to go over 5 speed bumps every day at my university. I have more problems with the resonators on my catback than the LTs and the xpipe.

I've been told that a stall convertor is both worth it and totallly not worth it. The stall is probably 1000 bux for a good one w/ install.

I would just get a good aftermarket valvebody, either Lentech or Performance Automatics, this at least is what I'm doing if/when I do it.

i dont know much about automatics, why would it be totally not worth it? just because of the price?

I meant to say that I've [I]heard[I] that it was worth it and not worth it. I dont know why I said totally.
