The stock Converter produces around a 14% parasitic loss by its self, most aftermarket converters reduce this down to about 6% and bumps your rwhp up by about 25-30rwhp from the swap alone. The catch with the verter is getting the right one to fit your needs. Go to high and your truck lacks streetability, go to low and the mods you add on that need the stall will cause you to bog down. Its a fine line to walk but if you know what you are doing and where you are going with it, it makes a hell of a mod.
As far as mods to do......well there are quite a bit that can be done to free up power and add power, just depends on how deep your pockets go.

Torque converter is huge on these trucks. Like truckin151 said, you have to know where you are going with your truck in order to pick the right stall.
On that topic Truckin, if all you were going to do is intake, exhaust and programmer, what stall would you recommend for someone who tows but only on occasion?

Did you install yours yourself? I have been thinking about doing this sometime soon to see the full potential of my truck... Not really anything I need, just a want, but that goes for most of the mods on my truck.
