Tilton flow control

I bought one and am thinking about installing it today for tonights racing however I am getting some mixed feedback on weather or not I should use it on my setup. I am running ACT street light and ACT heavy duty unsprung. My 60ft should be in the 1.55 - 1.60 area although I am still working on my launch. I had to take out my driveshaft shop axles because they were having some serious vibration and send them back to frank for inspect so I've gone back to stock axles. It is my belief that running the tilton will only help with a little bit of slip any thoughts? Fresh rebuilt T2 pumkin with 4:33's. First time out a few weeks back best 60ft was 1.7 learning to launch it.

I'm launch at 14 psi ~425 at the wheels and then 3rd gear I hit 20psi around 600-610.

Well I didn't end up putting it in last night, not sure if it would have mattered, I ran 2 low boost warm up passes bested a 11.61 @ 117.9 1.69 60ft then on the 3rd pass, the tranny went when I launched. Sucks, I had a real hard *** tech inspector as well, said I could only run 11.49 because I didn't have a sub belt and my "SFI" belts were not NHRA certified and my cage wasn't certified I was in no mood to argue I just wanted to get on the track, 11.49 fine, plan was to warm up on low boost then run the hi and get a warning or asked to leave, but the trans went before I had a chance.
