Default What converter for a4 and n20?

I know this is the nitrous side but what converters are people using for a4's making around 560rwhp. I would like to get a feel for what is working for everyone, I'm trying to get something that works decent on motor and won't blow through it on the bottle. Would like to be around 4000 stall and would like to see what works for you?

28" tire, 410 gears, shifting at 6,900. I guess I should have posted more info, I was just looking to see what everyone else is using with there nitrous setups. What brand, what size stall, what str, how much power you are putting through it. I don't want to blow through a converter on top end on the bottle, but would like it to work well on the street.

I am shifting at 7000 and am looking to do 3800-4000 on motor and with a 200 hit it will flash to 5000 give or take a few hundred. Right now I have a 3000 on motor and it's too tight. It wakes up on the spray but still not enough.(it lost .6 in the quarter on motor compared to the last which was 5000 on motor and 6000+ on spray(ie: too much)..)/


If you have a 3 speed and not a 2 speed like me, go tighter than you probably think. You're first gear is steep enough to handle a semi-tight converter. A 2 speed doesn't have as much margin for error. A tight stall might slow you down a tenth and it'll slow a 2 speed car down a half second.. my advice..3600-3800 built specifically for the hose.

Goodluck!
