I run an AC 16930 with my 6262 JB. It's a dog off the line on Erics default settings. Dial the low gear fuel and timing in...and it spools pretty damn quick and I pull 1.5's. I find that most don't know how to tune...so they immediately go to a looser convertor.
THIS X 2 !!!
Totally agree with you ... it goes back to the mentality of throw more parts at it because I cant tune for shit .
