could you tell a huge difference as far as brake stalling and taking off? (acceleration)

i dont know how you even take it. my first gear with 3.73 is 65 and my second went over 100 the other night and i layed off, i think it was about to shift though lol.

i cant imagine a 3.42 with a stock converter. i have a 4000 fti in my truck and love it. for some reason its tight if i don give it much throttle. but once i roll into it more it stalls up high. my mpg is around 15 average. dont be scared of the converter man.

if it wasn't so beastly once the turbo kicks in, I would probably end up selling it due to such a huge disappointment lol

I'm going to get video next Friday when I take it to the track so I can post up some vids on this thread so people can critique me and see exactly how the truck reacts from a launch.

The races are just grudge matches, so I won't be able to get any times- you will just see me getting my *** whooped by a stock honda civic (or similar) up until the middle of the track lol then I blow their doors off

really? seems like every STS truck I see the turbo spools even before they give it the gas! I guess that doesn't mean it is building boost though lol

On Normal driving it will get moving at 1500 rpm on a leveled street.
