Default What should I expect?

Just ordered the Yank SS3800. What kind of gains should I expect from this converter? I'm still waiting on the car and I believe that it will just be a T/A with 2.73 gears. What gains should I expect with 245 50 16 street tires on the rear and with 315 35 17 nittos on the rear? Thanks!!

1999 T/A R.I.P.
New T/A coming soon!!

Hmmm so with the street tires I'll just be spinning huh? On the old car that I had, I managed to get a 13.4 with a little bit of wheelspin from 4 year old street tires. I could be in the deep 12s with this converter then.
