3200 RPM Stall Torque Converter

What Does This Do?

If you have an automatic Challenger, the torque converter is what connects your engine to the transmission (think of it as the automatic version of a clutch). A higher stall speed means the converter lets the engine rev higher before transferring power to the transmission — this puts you in the powerband for harder launches. Benefits: dramatically improved launches, better throttle response, and the billet construction handles high-power builds. The 3200 RPM stall is aggressive enough for modified engines but not so high that it makes the car undriveable. Trade-offs: slightly higher RPM at highway cruise (roughly 200-300 RPM higher), increased transmission fluid heat (consider an aftermarket trans cooler), and the car will feel different at low speed — less 'creep' at stoplights and lazy response below 2000 RPM until you learn to drive it. This is NOT a bolt-on — the transmission must be removed. Budget $800-1,200 for professional installation. A new torque converter is highly recommended if you're already having the transmission pulled for other work.
