Don't all auto trannies have them? I thought the torque converter engages to lessen the slippage of the gears. I might be talking out of my ass though.

I may be doing mine very soon. Here is the Level Ten web site. They are the only ones making a TC for our TL.

It'll cost you $600 for the torque converter and at least $500 install. I'm having mine done at Level Ten so it may be cheaper.
