it defiantly makes it accelerate faster, i lost about 2/10ths in the quarter with mine. When you punch it and it locks up at low speeds you can feel the engine bog down becasue its cranking all the power to the ground. Towing it works well to, being able to lock the converter really helps with the tranny temps.

I have the exact same set up ('cept the trailer) and second the recommendation. I love my set up!!

I've got the ATS Co-pilot and have had a problem with it from Day 1 where any time my TST is turned above level 1 the torque convertor locks up. Neither TST or ATS have heard of it before though so it must not happen often.
