I personally think you should put out the extra money for it, if you break the regular one when using nitrous you will just have to buy a nitrous one later on down the road. More than likely the non nitrous one would perform fine for your application, but I suggest you call them and see what they say.

i know plenty of guys running spray on regular converters (i will be very soon as well ). the only thing i can recommend to you is to keep the stall in the range you specified. Once you start getting up near 4000 and higher stall speeds, the nitrous tends to be self defeating because you blow right through the converter and waste all the extra horsepower. on top of that, in extreme cases, if the converter slips enough on the spray, you can actually run out of gear in a 1/4 mile run.
