Default Torque Converter vs Other Mods

Would upgrading the torque convertor, for say 10 hp, be more effective than just getting an intake or exhaust for 10hp, or is it just another mod?

Intake and exhaust won't give you an extra 10hp but it will give you some HP.

Torque converter won't give you an extra 10 hp.

The torque converter will use the HP more efficiently therefore transferring more HP to the wheels without the usual 15-20% drivetrain loss.

the torque convertor claims to save a 1sec off the time.

Its not a new one, they modify the old one.

I got one to sell so they can mod it and ya dont have to wait without a car smile.gif
