Torquey camshafts

Alan.

Torque converter lockup
Anyone had experience modifying their torque converter to manual lockup? I have a 1997 80 series 1FZ-FE, A440F auto and I would like to know which wire, what colour, where it's located etc. I have a relay schematic ready to go I just need to know what wire to tap into. Anyone done this?
