revmax converters are fine even for nitrous.... they do have billet pieces as well though.
From the video it looks like the weight is shifting rearward then back forward, causing it to unload. you do spin after it unloads. not only is it shifting front to back but also side to side. Maybe an airbag in the right side coil. What rpms are you launching at and what rpm do you have your window switch set to spray?

I really dont think you are blowing through your converter based on the mph. I think you are spinning when your car comes back down after the launch. You can hear it in the video. Car hops up on the hit, and falls back down real quick. As it is falling, you can hear it unloading.

It's an old argument. You don't have to believe me; take it up with one of the Stock Eliminator or Super Stock guys. They know a whole lot more about this than you and I do

I just now watched the video. It looks like a shock problem to me.
nitrous2 is right; it's unloading and spinning after the initial hit.
I wouldn't change converters or do anything else until you get the suspension under control.
What do you have for shocks? front and rear

No. Letting the front of the car rise actually softens (distributes over a longer time period) the hit on the tires. As the front comes back down it acts as a lever on the axle/tires. It's not wasted; you get it back.
