Default trans brake stall help

I just did my 4l80e swap in my 02 ta . I did Jake's stage 2 then had billet shafts and add Jake's 3d trans brake I also purchased from another member a Jake's multi disc converter thats a 3200 stall .. my problem is that when I hit my tb switch I can only get it to stall to 1500.. I know my car makes 390 plus to the tire . Now the stall came out of a 800hp procharged camaro , but Shouldn't it stall to atlest 2500 t0 3200 when I hit and floor it? If Jake performance give me info on the converter it would be wonder full I have the guys name it was engraved on the converter

A converter built to be 3200 stall behind 800 hp isn't going to go to 3200 behind 400 HP.

You've cited a good example of why converters are custom built to each application.

You need to have a converter built to match your combo. You may be able to restall what you have.

1/2 the horsepower = 1/2 the stall. stall is slippage of the applied power.

Thanks guys that's what I figured I plan on turbo this winter. Just wanted other input .. also for anybody that wants to know how Jake's 3d works and install was . I would say easy as long as you don't pinch the wires in the process . I can also vouch for Jake's customer service he emailed me back quickly on many rookie questions .
