What does this do?

It's like giving an automatic car a clutch sort of. Allows your engine to wrap up the RPM's to the specified range, in this case 2800-3000 and then engages and your car takes off, hard, and fast, cause you are in your RPM band so to speak.

I want it, but I need a whole new trans so really doesnt do me any good

yes i do have a trans for sale also...

So if you don't put it to 2800-3000 it won't move? How do you "take off easy" then?

[97rs4life]

it works just like your normal TC, except when you brake stall your car now you can only get to 1800-2000 rpms before it creeps on ya, this will allow you to stall it up higher

Oh okay. So that would help out with off the line speeds?

[PACE]

YA VERY MUCH SO, IT KEEPS YOU IN YOUR SEAT THAT FOR SURE, MORE IF YOUR f/i.. KEEPING IN YOUR SEAT ANYWAY.. IT GRABS

Yep, would launch a lot harder. Basically when you stab the gas you would take off at 3000 rpm instead of idle because it wouldn't engage till 3k.

Here's a cut of an article that explains it:

Why A Converter?

There are two basic reasons why automatic transmissions need torque converters. First, they allow the engine to decouple from the rest of the drivetrain at slow speeds, eliminating the need for a clutch. Second, the slip that’s built into the converter not only lets the engine rev immediately into its powerband, it also allows this slipping action to multiply the engine’s torque. This explains the abnormally sky-high torque curves often generated by an auto trans car on a chassis dyno. So even though many of our favorite slush boxes only have two or three forward gears, the converter adds some effective gear multiplication to get the car out of the hole faster.

So what’s all the talk about stall speed? Stall speed boils down to the rpm at which the converter effectively locks the motor to the driveline and multiplies torque at a one-to-one ratio. Since the guts of a converter constitute a fluid coupling, the two halves of a conventional converter are never directly locked together like a clutch disc to a flywheel—unless, of course, it’s a modern lockup version with an integral friction clutch. A good converter should produce less than 10 percent slippage after the engine rpm has exceeded the stall speed, otherwise the constant, heat-building slippage will lead to wasted engine output and an early death for the trans.
