After reading your post and seeing that you probably wont take it to the drags much...I would say that your better off not putting a convertor in and spend that money on something else...You wont use the full benifits of a convertor unless your at a drag strip, its there to get you out off the line quick and you wont be doing that on the street as youll just fry it. It will also change the drivabilty of your car somewhat and also increase fuel consumption. And that being said if your mrs is driving it in the wet and she stomps on the throttle when the convertor flashes up, it will be alot more agressive. My XR6T is a everyday workute and im running a custom 2800 convertor, I dropped my 60ft at the drags from 2.0 to 1.6, I do race it a fair bit , but if your not intending to much, I wouldnt bother...just my 2 cents worth. Its your decision good luck with it.
