The Tc4 shock towers can give more steering and stability versus the Tc3 shock towers. The braces or "wings" are needed to have somewhere to mount the inner camber link after adding the Tc4 shock towers. The advantages of vertical ballstud mounting is debatable, so i wont even go into that.

The solid spool is what you want to run on asphalt. The slipper spool mainly adds some security against crash breakage over a solid spool.
A diff will mostly be used on carpet, or if you cant seem to get rid of an exit corner oversteer issue on asphalt (all else being proper).
A one-way is never better. lol Its disadvantages outweigh its advantages, unless you are on a large smooth flowing track with very few braking zones. Even then, a spool can outperform it.
