I daily drive my G8 and don't have any issues with it.

I have a circle D 2800 single disk. I drive the car the same way I always did, same amount of throttle when pulling away from a stop, etc. The biggest thing I notice are of course when you floor it how fast RPMS climb, and when driving around it seems to shift at the same RPM all the time, almost like driving a CVT. I like it though, I have been shying away from a stall since my 04 GTO but finally bit the bullet and decided to get one for the G8 for a good sized cam and I have no regrets.

I have the Circle D 2800 stall 258 mm single disc. It dropped my car almost 7 tenths in the quarter, but I drive it everyday, and noticed a very little difference at part throttle. This is the third car i've had a stall in. You will simply love it.

7 tenths?!?!?! Really?!?!? I had no idea it gave so much...
FTI is the only converter I will run in my G8....had one in each of my GTOs...They are awesome. Greg has an amazing crew and customerservice is top notch
Be glad to answer any question you have.....

This is on the higher end of gains, but possible. We have done a full second in some situations....But that was on a radical cam with stock converter.

Ditto on this post...I only look at 60ft time on a TQ install (3200 for me) and I only gained 2 tenths...7 tenths seems high to me for a 1/4...but cool for you..deputycrawford.
FTI 2800, could not be happier.
