Question

I've heard mixed reviews of TC's in general and was wondering if anyone had an opinion on them? I want to add some speed and on the Q-n-A page theres a question about adding more off the line power and the answer says adding an intake, torque converter and exhaust system would really add some power. 5.1 for 0-60? I think that's what they quoted. Anyway, in another post or article I read that the TC has a tendency to roughen the ride a little. I wonder how? Sounds like all it does is tighten down the automatic clutch a bit. *shrug* Well, if anyone has any experience with them or a good reason I shouldn't add the TC let me know. Thanks...
