Default A6 Stall?

Does anyone know the stall of the stock torque converter in the new A6?

I found this info and it states the converter is 258/300mm. Does that mean the stator is 258mm and the turbine is 300mm?

Is there a way to estimate stall speed based on turbine size?

The Hydra-matic 6-Speed RWD is a fully automatic, six-speed, rear-wheel drive, electronic-controlled transmission. It consists primarily of a four-element torque converter, an integral fluid pump and converter housing, a single and double planetary gear set, friction and mechanical clutch assemblies, and a hydraulic pressurization and control system.

The transmission is equipped with DSC(Driver Shift Control) which is a "manual" mode, and utilizes rocker switches on the steering the driver may select upshifts or downshifts An upshift is requested by pushing either + button. A downshift is requested by pulling either + button rearward toward the driver.
