know more people who have installed and use the muti disc PI TC with great results...and personal preference..that is all...The boys at summitracing.com do advise for the TCI3000....it is a great TC (so I am told) but again. i dont know enough people that have it, in fact I dont know anyone personally that has it...that does not make it bad...its just where my OWN comort levels lie....thats all...

TCI is a re-worked OEM.
There are better choices than TCIin my opinion. PI or Level 10 make better stuff.
