Default Circle D or Pro torque?

Ive been pondering switching to a new converter since yank is still saying i'm good with my ss3600 even though they havent asked me more than what the rpms i shift my car at on nitrous is, Never asked what the weight of my car is or estimated engine horsepower, rear end ratio and so on. I planned on running a manual lockup switch on my car because i found myself running out of gear at the track but they never recommended a triple disk converter. To me they are well built converters but not a true custom built converter like circle d or pro torque. I am not bashing Yank in any way but i just think they should get more info before recommending a converter. Ok i'm done ranting lol

Why not consider a FTI converter as well?

I definitely will do FTI, you were also one of my choices, i'm sure it will come down to best price for the best converter possible for my setup. Thanks
