Default tip tranny upgrade

Im slowly working my way up to full stage3. My 01 2.7t is a tip, and with the gutted precats and chip im already pushing the limits of the clutch. Can anyone shed some light on beafing up the torque converter and anything else that would be essential to withstand the stage 3 power. Parts, labor?

stage 2+ is fine but for stage 3 you would do an upgraded tq converter and possiblyupgraded valve body.
I thnk ITX and 3zero 3 do TC for 750, then add labor at your local shop.
2bennett (California) is more expensive but are supposed to be the best with proven track record, tens of thousand of track miles on their stage3 tip. They are the ones diong the APR cars.Also heard good things about 3zero3 (colorado)and mixed feedback on IPT (but improved recently, chekc their thread on Audizine group buy section (top)). Don't know about price for valve body.

found the IPT site. Im new to the whole tranny world. If i were to send it in it would be 625 for the tq converter and 625 for the valve body, am i reading this correctly?
