Default Parasitic loss of converter

I will soon be getting a custom torque converter built by FTI. Greg has set me up with a custom job but he has been secretive on the specs of it. He said it will fall between his SRLS0082 3200 stall speed offering and his SRLS0086 3600 stall offering. I know the 0082 has a higher STR than the 0086 does. I chose not to get my car tuned after my exhaust upgrades so I have no idea what it would be making had I gotten a tune, but I was wondering if those of you who have dyno'ed their stalled A4's can give me an idea as to how much lower the RWHP/RWTQ numbers will be that are shown on the dyno with a converter around this size (it's a 9.5" billet lockup btw).

Car set-up at the time of dyno will be:
1999 Formula (stock 4L60E, stock LS1 intake/tb, stock 10-bolt 2.73 gears, 26k miles)
ARH 1-7/8" LT's
ARH 3" ORY
Borla catback (open)
SLP Lid
EGR!/AIR!
Suspension/Chassis work - LCA's, PHB, STB, SFC's
FTI Custom Converter w/ trans cooler
