Just so that you know, the implication some people have been making that a centrifugal supercharger needs an aftermarket torque converter or it's a slug is misleading. Would it be a benefit, yes, as getting the rpm up quicker into the area where it makes boost would be nice. But even with the stock torque converter, your kit should have a good chance of getting in the 10s. So I'm saying that the stock torque converter is not really why you went 11.5. Some examples of why I feel this way: I personally went 10.9s in hot weather (80s and 90s) with a base ECS kit using the stock torque converter, and I know that another poster in this thread, Eyefixstuff, ran a 10.6 with a P1SC in decent weather with the stock torque converter.
