Tranny problems related to Torque converter?

This is from the tranny section and nobody has paid any attention:

http://www.acura-cl.com/forums/showt...threadid=59871

I received a call from an Acura Engineer today. I explained that my transmission was change out, after 20K. I ask if he had any ideas why the transmissions were failing? He said that Acura is aware of the problem, and that the transmissions are not the problem, it is the torque converter. The original torque converter can not handle the HP.

Interesting, no?

I hope that this is it and that Acura is not just replacing parts. That is why some on this Board are on their 3rd tranny..
