The spiral was designed with the theory that a higher flow rate will give better results.

The TC-4 was designed with the theory that a turbulated (or disrupted) flow will give better results.

Of course you could apply both theories by getting a very powerful pump and a TC-4.
But I have also heard that more powerful was not always better, the systems needed to be matched. I was planning on an Eheim 1048, 1/2" Tygon tubing, DangerDen GF4 block, Black Ice Extreme Radiator, and either the TC-4 or the Spir@l. Does anyone see any problem with this setup?
