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?

 

oops move to drivetrain section!

 

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!

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

 

Your right, my mistake.

 

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 ****.

 

Order your MT street radials yet? Your gonna need them.

 

I wish I could. Im sporting bfgoodrich Kdw's in the back I have 17x9.5 front and 18x10.5 in the rear and I dont think Micky makes them bigger then 17's =(

 

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