Your MPH might increase, and maybe, your ET as well. I think that depends on how effficient the converter is for a given combo. The trade-off in the past was the converter that would 60 it's balls off would be loose on the big end.

If I went say 11.99@112, maybe if I locked it up it would go 113mph. I know in the past I had a H/C 4th gen combo that went 11.7@112 and it went 114mph with me manually locking it up. I personally don't care right now because this converter is pretty efficient and I like that it 60'd a 1.66 spinning, tells me a low 1.6 is possible, maybe even a high 1.5.
