Default Converter for best of both worlds: Nitrous & N/A?

Not sure if there was one out there, but Id like to install a converter that would be killer naturally aspirated and killer on nitrous as well. When I first thought about doing an auto. in my car, I had different goals which opted me for the SS4000. but now that Ive had it and the car is turning more and more into a track car, I want to go with something more track oriented. What do you recommend? Thanks.

If you want the best mixture of both, keep watcha got unless you want to lean far towards the N2O side (like a 200 shot or more.)

I personally would take the PT series way over the SS series. I had a SS3800 and my PT4000 pulls much harder throughout the RPM range. Granted there is 200 RPM mroe stall I'm sure I'd feel the same about the Ss4000.

For NA running I would agree but the PT4000 would certainly NOT be a great choice for running nitrous. It has too much shift extension.

It is great for 100 shot (sometimes up to 150) or less, and gives excellent n/a manners.

i would run a UT4600 made by yank and drop those 4.56 gears in your rear housing then run 14.5 to 1 compression for the nitrous and a 26" tire dead hooking. yup that will pretty much get you what you want.
