****Boost Builder Hi Stall Option****
Boost Builder is a Hi Stall option that is built into the transmission to allow a temporary increase in stall. This option will increase the Stall of any torque converter approximately 1000 RPM. Typically a Turbo car would use boost builder to increase stall to spool the turbo faster. When the turbo boost is up the boost builder is then turned off so the converter will then return to normal stall for top end slip efficiency. We have seen this setup spool large turbos and maintain 3% top end slip percentage with the proper torque converter. The Boost builder will work with any torque converter. Are you tired of the torque converter stall game? Is your converter so tight you cant bring your Turbo car up? Does your turbo car spool up fast but has excessive slip on the top end? Boost Builder can fix all these problems. Give us a call and we can explain how Boost builder can work for you.

The Competitors Super Sprag Exposed
Extreme Automatics does not install the so called Super Sprag. The 34 element sprag in a properly build transmission has proven to be reliable to about 1300HP. The Super Sprag has proven to hold even higher HP. I know you are asking yourself where I am going with this. The main problem with the Super Sprag is the cost factor. The typical drum cost from $600-$1000 in addition to the transmission build. Although It does increase the HP capability of the 2nd gear shift it still wears, it still breaks and you will never get the increased HP capability for the cash you spend. If you are making over 1300HP or just want something more reliable than a HD 34 element sprag. Check out our Extreme Spragless 400. You will see for yourself when you add a super sprag to a build with the increased cost you could have a Spragless Transmission.
