Brake it to 3grand and let her eat.

Sam, you can only brake your 3500 stall to 2000rpm on the stock brakes? Something don't sound right there. I can easily brake mine to 3200rpm with out making it lurch. Did you have your car tuned? If so, I'd talk to the tuner about that. A guy I know had a ATI 10psi and had a mail-tune that was seriously fucked up. When I say fucked up, I mean it had to be for another car. It was whacked out when we loaded up LS1edit to it. He couldn't brake his SY3500 to more than 2000 rpm because the tune was so fucked up.

I believe you have been misinformed. Ask any guy with a Yank ST3500 where it likes to leave the line and they will tell you 3k. I can get mine to go 3200 before the car wants to surge. Completely stock brakes.
OF course all 'verters are different though. Some like to be flashed and some like to be stalled up.
Edit: Hey you're in Dubai. I just exported a piece of medical equipment there last week.

I'm not sure. I haven't kept up on the new converters that have recently come out.
Pick the converter(s) you like and ask about their launch characteristicis specifically.
As always, SEARCH is your friend.
