Default Which torque convertor?

I have 03 A4 w/ 3:42's. I am not sure if i am going to go heads and cam or forced induction. Which would be the best torque convertor for either application?

Thanks Guys

What kind of FI are you considering? Something in the 3200-3600 range should be safe for both N/A and FI.

Andy at A&A recommended I stay with a lower stall if I planed going SC. I am running the Vigilante 2800 with the plan of going SC at some point in the future.

The Vig 2800 actually stalls around 3200.
