no you do not want to leave at full boost in any serious effort motor. way to much power. For instance, on my freinds new 10.5 car were doin, (615 cid with twin 91's, gonna be about 3200hp at 9600 rpm) Being its a 4-link at 3000lbs on that tire, full boost should come in around 7200-7500, so the converter is gonna hit hard around 6400, the motor has enough power to get the tire up and spinning, and about 40ft out full boost should come in(also a 3spd lencoglide)

K back, anywho, I was looking at turbo buicks for a project car in the near future, and on some of the upgrades for turbos, well the more extreme ones. It said the turbo stall was 4200, then looking at torque converters it says the rpm stall can be whatever. Would they need to match, or what is what I was asking.

No. You just have to have enough power at converter flash to lock it up, the rest is up to you. To bad I sold my GN, you could have bought it cheap.
