With the power that you'll be putting down after your "winter mods", you'll want a big converter...like a Yank PT4400.

Thanks for that
SLP said 3200 due to road use but car is used 90% at the track as I told them.

You don't need a real loose converter in an application with a power adder. You'll drive right through that converter. Something rated around the 3500 range would work a lot better. It'll stall quite a bit higher with 6 psi boost.
I'd recommend the TCI Super Streetfighter, part number 242932. It's very driveable and won't give up any efficiency on the big end.

I agree with Kevin. A large converter isn't the way to go for a forced induction setup.

The best Yank converters for your setup would be the extreme line: PY-3400E or PY-3600E.

As always, if you are looking at a Yank, I suggest calling Mike about your combination.
