Default stall issues, please help!

Since I had my transmission out a couple weeks ago I decided it was time to put a stall in it, well I went with a Precision Industires 3800 Triple Disc lock-up converter. I brought it the the track this past wednesday and was highly disapointed, the converter doesnt even flash or brake stall any more than stock from a dead stop, but from a low mph roll it will flash to 4k rpm. Why will this thing not flash or brake stall???? Anybody think its my tune, I have two buddies with TCI3000's that feel way better than mine does. I have no clue as to whats up, I really am trying to avoid switching stalls out And just for the record......

Stock Stall:
Best N/A = 13.43 @ 100mph
Best N20 = 12.50 @ 112mph

3800 Stall:
Best N/A = 14.1 @ 97mph
Best N20 = 12.9 @ 106mph

hmm, almost sounds like it is locked up all the time? wtf? i have no idea.

i noticed a BIG difference in my stock stall and 4k, so you should definitely know that it's a 3,800.

Something is definitely wrong somewhere. I'd call PI and see what they have to say.
