Ive have had my TCI street fighter for over 2 years and in 2 different car, no problems yet. The street fighter is a 2800 stall with a 2.2 stater I believe. If i were him and buying a converter now I would purchase the superstreet Fighter converter By TCI, 3500 stall with a 2.5 stater , well worth the money.From a performance stand point with 273s gears and some boltons it would get a 60ft of 1.82 to 1.85 at the track. Now with a small cam and 342 gears my 60ft is 1.70 to 1.74 at the track by the way that is on nitto drag radials. Hope this helps u.

I would agree that your friend should get at least a 3500. Driveability will still be fine, but he will find a better performance gain. What are his goals with the car?

Yeap, TCI SSF 3500 is what I run. that's what i suggested to him. But he calls me a maniac on my launches and he wants something tamer. He doesn't want to trash his Dif. (Which I tell him he will have to do anyway one day, and so will I) but that doesn't stop me

From info I gathered around, the 3000 2.2 str is a bit tighter on the street, but gives up .10/.15 in the 1/4. I got a 3500 like I said and it is ok on the street. I increased line pressure and it seems less loose not that it was too loose to begin with.

A TCI 3500 seems ideal on the street to me. It's a preference things but most people really like a 3500 for a daily driver. IMO, a 3000 stall is a truck converter.

And i guess a cooler and a shift kit would be a must as well.

LOL! I's just kiddin' really. I used to run a 2600 in my '00 a long time ago! 
A cooler for a 3500 is not absolutely necessary but it is HIGHLY recomended and certainly money well spent, IMO.
A shift kit is nice to have but is by no means necessary. I think it's a really good idea when the power starts getting high and again, nice to have for any setup.
