Normally, a torque converter is swapped in favor of a performance piece that allows the engine to reach a higher rpm before engaging. The reason for this is usually for racing, where you need the engine to reach a certain rpm where more performance is available from the engine.

We also hear they are more durable than OE converters equipped with plastic stators.
