I think it all depends if you can improve on your short time(60 foot) with a trans brake. Whats your sixty foot on foot brake? Also your suspension, tires will respond differently with a trans brake as well.

It's hard to make guesses over the Internet, as there are so many variables.
But if it hooks off the transbrake and you're making decent boost by the time you let it go, it should make a huge difference. At your power level the car should be 60ing significantly better.
Transbrake should make the process easier if everything else is right.
