    Most likely the torque converter is draining back in the pan. Most likely the check valve in the cooler line is not hold closed or it's been removed.

@ty_lowcountry My local shop did my Suncoast stage one with one year unlimited milage warranty, installed without torque converter for 2200, spent 1200 on the converter.  I  also spent about 300 to convert all hard lines to soft lines and add 2 new coolers eliminating the liquid to liquid oil cooler below the turbo.  The lines are equivalent to what you would find on a cat front end loader, believe it or not they are better and cheaper than stainless braided :thumb1:

I did this after I kept having fluid leaks from to liquid to liquid cooler, one time leaving me stranded 300 miles from home.
