vig 2800 is probably like a TCI 3200/3300.

There are people happy with both. I've seen some very fast times out of the Vig 2800.

Be sure you get a tranny cooler as well. (cheap insurance).

Perference and money I guess would be a big factor, I have seen many guys with both and both have good results, but I have noticed that vig has tendency to loss MPH compared to TCI from what Ive seen. You can also get a TCI converter , tranny cooler and shift kit for the price of a VIG.
