Low end power from an auto

I just bought another rx7, unfortunately this one has an auto transmission and I was looking for any ideas or suggestions to boost the low end power.
Take off from a dead stop is quite slow. The last two 7s I have owned were 5-speed, so I am not used to this slow take off.

i dont know about rx7s but any other car and i would assume this would be the same but, high stall torque converters are awsome, we did one on my friends camaro auto and damn it pulls like a bat out of hell, extremely costly though unless you do it yourself, otherwise go manual they are so much fun and chicks dig it

4.1 or 4.3 rearend swap will help considerably. 4.1s came stock on most 5sps.
