It is a Goerend converter and the stall speed I don't know. But I'm not to the power yet that I told Dave i wanted. I do have a boost leak to take care of then maybe turbo won't be as slow to spool.

If you want to improve you trubo lag off the line try turning in the the smoke screw on the end of the AFC housing (it's on the diaphragm side). Mine was laggy and when I turned mine in it really woke it up off the line. I could almost spin the tires from a dead stop.

I was informed to check my trottle cable to see if it was stretched out where the fuel pedal is. It had about 3 inches of play so I fixed it and HOLY CRAP what a differance! Talk about pep off the line. So that definitely helped. I am still going for a GSK kit though. Thanks!
