Default Converter Locking up to soon

Hello, I'm a new member and this is my first post.
I just installed a 422 with direct port nitrous from ARE. They use Superchips and I have sent the programer back for some tweeking and can see this is going to get old quick. So I ordered LS1 Edit and my first thing I will do is adjust the converter lock up.
It seems that the converter locks up way to soon when driving on the street. It will lock up at 30 mph or even lower at times. They shouldn't have changed any of that, but who knows. This monster motor sure doesn't run to smooth at that low rpm.
I'm just trying to get a few tips on what to look for when I get the LS1 Edit.
The converter is a Yank PY 3600 Extreme with a Yank Tranny. Every thing worked fine with the stock engine and programing. Thanks.

Nice to see you here Tom. I think you'll find that it's pretty easy to tweak TCC lockup to your liking. More seem to have trouble with it unlocking.

I thought ARE was using LS1-Edit in house now?

ARE is still using Super Chips. LS1 edit is on order, so they say.
