Do stalls and turbos mix?

I've got an 2002 Z28 A4 with TCI 3000 convertor and 2.73 gears. I'm getting the Phamspeed turbo and wonder how the car will react with the turbo and the stall.

I've yet to get used to the stall. I really don't like the stall, and advice, different gears?

Because of the huge torque turbos make that will stall even higher when you get into boost. Likely 4000-4500 RPM's. It's sickening to punch the car from low RPM's and it comes into and holds boost instantly.

I had a 3000stall in my 4x4. Then i did the STS turbo and should have been close to 600rwtq or so and my stall was closer to 3500 or a bit more RPM. My stock TQ was about 290. Worked well for me since I was at full boost by about 4200rpm on my big turbo.
