Torque Converters
Triple
Tested Quality
TCI®
strives to produce the best torque converters in the industry. Part of
the process involves ensuring that each unit is built to spec. Regardless
of what category or price level it may fall into, every TCI® torque
converter is Triple Tested during assembly.
Once all the prep work on
the component parts has been completed, the impeller is welded to the
front cover. Immediately following this process, a pair of dial
indicators are employed on a rotating table to verify that the impeller
body and pump drive hub remain true.
Each unit is then
pressurized and subjected to a leak test to confirm the integrity of all
the weld seams. Lastly, each unit is computer balanced to reduce
annoying and potentially damaging drivetrain vibrations that would occur
from an unbalanced torque converter. That's Triple Tested so you can be confident you're getting a
torque converter that's
ready to roll.
Sure, our Maximizer™ torque converters are all about increased efficiency & durability
but they also mean increased fun factor as well! See
here in this brief video.
• Cooler feed
orifice enlarged for enhanced lubrication.
• Converter feed
circuit cross-drilled to line pressure circuit to provide
full-time feed.
• Front seal
drain back passages enlarged to prevent seal blowout.
• Higher rate
pressure regulator valve spring installed for increased torque
capacity.
• New, steel
boost valve installed to reduce loss of boost signal from
pressure control solenoid. (EPC)
• An improved
front lube/drain back valve assembly replaces the plastic OEM
counterpart, which can melt, restricting the front lube oil
feed circuit, which results in overdrive planetary failure.
updated E4OD center supports
Park Gear: Machined thrust washer face
of park gear for a low-drag needle bearing to add torque capacity
and lower friction.
Overdrive Piston Retaining Ring: OEM
C-style retaining ring is replaced with a special locking, spiral
retaining ring to prevent it from popping off.
Each transmission assembly is statically tested for individual
hydraulic circuit integrity before valve body installation
Each transmission receives a 100%
tested, remanufactured valve body
Each transmission is dyno tested to verify proper functions,
pressures and cooler flow
Triple
Tested Quality
TCI®
goes the extra mile to ensure your
transmission is superior in both form and function. Beginning with a
careful inspection of the transmission case and components that will be
used, we replace stock parts with high performance bands and components
where applicable. We increase fluid flow, lubrication system and thrust
capacity. Problematic hard parts are replaced with stronger components,
many of which we fabricate ourselves at our in-house machining centers.
Valve bodies are completely remanufactured and 100% tested prior to
installation.
Finally, each and every TCI® transmission must pass both a
static hydraulic pressure test during assembly and a final dyno test prior to
shipping. That's Triple Tested so you can be confident you're getting a transmission that's
ready to rock.
