Yes. Mine will lock up at 55 cruising if I tap the upshift button and it locks the converter until I put it back in sport mode. I drive mine around town in traffic in manual mode, converter locked so I can keep the tranny cooler than being unlocked. My tuner set it up in what he called "manual auto lock", so that anytime I hit the downshift or upshift button my converter will lockup in what ever gear I am running in. Really nice tune to keep it cool.
