I didn't read all of that so as far as helping your time, it all depends on how high of a stall you get, how it's tuned, and if you have the traction for it.
2/10s - 5/10s depending on application sound right to you guys?

If Im reading that right, you have a 3500 stall. You dont feel that your stall is too high for the street? I too am thinking about getting one, but Im still sitting on the fence.

Perfect for me, i barely touch the pedal and the car starts to rev, I dont need to step alot in order for the car to start moving. Infact, the computer reads better MPG since the TC in lol.

MexGT where did you get your stall converter from? And is yours a single disc or multi-disc?
