Useing HP Tuners How Can I make my Coverter Lock up at Full Throttle Only @ WOT?

I want to make my Converter Lock up at the top of 2nd Gear and stay locked up from that point all the way through the 1/4 mile at wot.I don't want to enable the lock during shift because it is a daily driver...Thanks!

after talking to performabuilt transmissions they said that locking the TC during 1/4 mil runs acually hurts times...

I usually lock them in 3rd.

email me your tune, and what the car runs now. Better yet, if you can gimme the incrementals that would be mo betta.

List of mods, or at least hp/rwhp would be good too. Converter type, stall, etc.
