Default what stall?

I need some help i'm working on my turbo's right now and i want to figure out what stall i want or should get I guess its a daily driver drive it to school and back but thats no more than 5 miles and i want my truck to go not really caring about having to tow so what do you think should i wait and get a dyno to figure out what would be best?

If you don't care about towing, I'd say 3000 or even 3300.

I was thinking more like 3500 or more, and should i wait to get it or get it before my turbos? I'm probaly going to go with a tci.

I would wait till you get the turbos installed
You'll want too see where you start too see boost
What are you building the truck up for Street use or track use
Too high a stall and your not gonna hook worth **** on the the street roast the tires off the launch
With My yank 3000 I build about 2-3psi of a hard launch and forget about hooking on the road
I've heard bad things about the TCI brand of converters
There was a thread where someone took one apart to find some shitty worksmanship in it

Get the turbos in the truck and see how they spool and then worry about the Tanny before a converter
My tranny took a dump with 3k on it with my procharger <img border="0" title="" alt="[Eek!]" src="gr_eek2.gif" />
keep us posted on the build up <img border="0" title="" alt="[Smile]" src="gr_stretch.gif" />

You definately want a higher stall for the turbos to spool up. 3200 sounds good. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="gr_grin.gif" /> There is a guy around here with a TT Z-28 and he is running a 3500 Vig.
