If the aforementioned angle is greater than 90 degrees then it will make the dampening and spring rate softer.
In a nutshell.
If that doesn't make sense just tell me what chassis you are using

I'm running my BMI CH12. So the commonly accepted effect is that the spring rate behaves more stiff without needing to go to a higher rate spring which may be too stiff.
