Simple question. I've heard from a friend that the stock 2G lockup converters are weak and grenade after 300-350whp due to the lockup in them. Has anyone found the limits of the stock 2G Torque Converter? This just sounds like BS to me, but I've never pushed a stock 2G Torque Converter. I've pushed a stock 1G torque converter to 400ish awhp and seen countless others push it to the 500-560hp region(beansblacktsi for one), but never the stock 2G unit.



SO, short and sweet. Is this BS, or is the stock 2g turbo converter actually legitimately weak past 300whp?
