Help choosing converter please.

Im wanting to upgrade my converter soon and was wondering if i could get some input. My car is an 85 GN. The car is mainly stock at the moment except for KB CAI, 86/86 ECM & MAF, RJC boost controller, and exhaust. I do have a TA48 turbo and set of 50# injectors with Turbotweak chip which will be installed. I would like a converter that stays tight like a stock one (with L/U) while normal driving but will let me leave the line a little harder....say 2800 stall or so. Who do you guys recommend? Would like to also stay under $300 for one. Thanks for any input.

we have a 2600 to 2800 rpm stall that is a 12 inch lockup.this will work good for what you are looking for and will act like a stocker cruising around with no load.
