Default tci 3500 stalled at 4500

Hey guys, I just got a tci 3500 stall converter installed today and when they dyno tuned the car the stall speed was 4500, thats kind of LOOSE in my opinion. They couldn't even get the converter to lock up with the computer?! Has anyone else ever had this happen to them??

You sure that everything is installed correctly?

This will help explain stall speed, BTW...

FWIW, if I nail my TCI SSF4000 equipped car from a roll (as it would be on the dyno ), the rpms will jump to 5100 rpm.

ssf 3500 is not built to be locked up a wot so egven though the clutch may engage it will probally just slip

i think you have some peopel just feeding bad **** into your head what it stalls on a dyno (or from any roll) is not representive orf its stall if you wanna know its stall flash it from a dig that is more close to its real stall speed
