Default looking for tips on launching my stalled a4

Ok it will be my first time to the track with the stall. My setup is a vig 2800 2.5str I will be running nitto 555r drags on stock wheels. I have Lca and relocation brackets. What's your guys suggestion on how to launch it?

Also lastime out I did a 12.9@108 with a 2.0 60ft and now I have the converter, about 40 degrees cooler out and I picked up about 30whp with a dyno tune. Any predictions on what I might run?

Those nittos are gonna need a good burnout, i used to run those on my lt1 car back in the day...start out launching off idle and slowly go up from there. so far my car seems to like 1500-1800 rpms then flashing the convertor. i personally wouldve went with atleast a 3600 stall but the one you have now is decent. i'll predict 12.4-12.6s with that setup.... Goodluck and make sure to post up your results...

I know a higher stall would yield better track times, but I picked this one up new for 350 and its my dd. For what its worth my converter seems to stall much higher than 2800 I'm gunna guess 3200. A friend is running a 3500 and mine sees the same rpms cruising and the same shift extension.
