Default 3000 stall

i just ordered a stall converter for my 01 a4 and i am also doing a 3.42 gear change, should i expect drivabilty issues with the new stall, it is a daily driver so i may order something lower opions seem to vary on this topic, it is being shipped tomorrow so i can change my order, its a tci unit because tci sponsors my racing class so i get 150 from them if i win, so it will be a tci that i order any input would be great

I have a 3000 stall in mine with stock 3.15 gears and the drivability is fine.

Since you didn't ask my opinion on TCI, I'll just keep my mouth shut. Driveability should be fine.

Forgot to mention, the looser the converter, the more heat they make. The more heat, the less time the transmission lasts, so I would recommend you get a good tranny cooler for cheap insurance!
