It'll reduce parasitic power loss in the transmission and make better use of your engine's powerband. I don't own a Honda...but I do know that when I stuck a new converter/tranny combo into my Mustang I dropped my e.t. over .5 seconds in the 1/4. Plus most aftermarket converters have better torque multiplication versus stock shit. That stock converter is tighter than a clam's ass so a slight increase in stall speed will do wonders in a seat-of-your-pants kind of way. Level Ten has always made some pretty good stuff. I'd rather go with Precision Industries, but I'm not sure they're in the Honda market.
