Im about to instal my new YANK ss3600 stall and tci flexplate on my A4 02 z28. The tranny is fully modified and im not sure if I should put in synthetic or reg tranny fluid. Does it affect the converter?

Just use plain old Dexron III. Avoid synthetic transmission fluids. They cause all sorts of problem with transmissions not designe to use them, like our 4L60E.

Marc 85Z28 is correct. What gears do you have, to go with the Yank? Did you pick up a B&M supercooler and a shift kit too? The shifts without a kit might feel a little sloppy.

It is called a torque converter, not a "stall" for God's sake! :p

And I agree, use a plain old tranny fluid.

With a built A4 I'd assume it's got some shift kit equivalent in it :)

Just go with regular DexronIII

the tranny has a transgo kit and carbon fiber bands, upgraded shell, the works. I have 3.42 gears in right now and the stall is by Yank, ss3600. I still havent got it in the mail and tomorrow im picking up a b&m supercooler. I just want to get everything ready before the install so im not just jumping around lookin and wondering about ****.

Even more important to use standard Dexron III. Aftermarket performance clutches do NOT like synthetics at all.
