Default Flexplates, which one

Going to be bolting my Lq4 to a coan racing th400 and looking into flexplates now. I have it narrowed down to either this one...

or this one...

TCI vs Hughes. I'm looking into bolting it on and going, not modifying or indexing. Boost is in the future so planning for that now. Which would you use/have used?

I and lots of people here have the TCI one and find it exceptional and bullet proof. (And I am no TCI fan.) If your budget allows a $250 flexplate it is a no-brainer.

06 gto stock flex plate is great and you may be able to save.

I'm looking to do it once and do it right, curious as to why one costs twice as much and do I need the hub adaptor if I was to opt for the Hughes one?
