I dont know what gears you had before the 3:73's? But if you had the 2:73's or 3:15's if your car is a A4, you should see a very big diff out of the hole!

How to work the stall... from a standstill or a roll - stand on the gas...

and them buy some new rear tyres because they should be a big cloud of smoke

Your post said you installed the converter, then asked the question if it was installed. I am confused.

Stall

With your foot on the brake, the tranny in gear, and the throttle wide open the motor should rev to about 2800 rpm. Take your foot off the brake and away you go, after the tires stop smoking that is.

He paid to have one installed, but not sure if the work was actually done.

That very mod is high on my list... the converter and going from 2.7s to 3.7s... I was hoping that there would be night and day difference ...
