GT67 STS kit...What converter would work best?
Hey I am converting my Trans am from 6spd to 4l60e. I am running the sts kit with a gt67 turbo. .81ar. and 3.42 gears. stock 10 bolt with 295 bfg gforce ta (tires are 26" tall) I can get a smoking deal on a tcs 2800 stall converter and was wondering if this is enough converter for my set up. Thanks,C

You guys must have some serious lag issues if you can't build boost on a 2800 rpm stall. My car with the 1.00 a/r 80mm turbo would build more boost than the brakes could hold (5-6psi at the track) with my 2800.

A lower stall would build more boost wouldn't it? Placing more load on the motor at a lower rpm? I've run both a 3000 stall and a 3500 stall on a sts W/gt67 3.73 rear and the 3000 being a tighter converter went from vacuum to boost quicker.
