Wouldn't it be nice to be able to have more control over the torque converter lockup on your 48RE transmission? Guess what....YOU CAN! The ATS CoPilot is designed to give the driver control over torque converter lockup, which is especially useful when used in conjunction with an exhaust brake. Factory computers are programmed to disengage lockup under certain conditions which will protect the transmission's internal components under high load. The big problem with this is that it means you are not in lockup under deceleration, making an exhaust brake essentially useless because that retarding power isn't making it's way to the tires!
The control panel on the face of the CoPilot allows the driver to adjust the lockup of the transmission once a certain amount of boost is created in order to avoid the engine being bogged down from excessively early converter lockup. Adjustment of the CoPilot is done with simple UP and DOWN arrows on the face of the controller that typically gets mounted under the dash, similar to a brake control.
