I've driven both in a C4, it was even back-to-back, and I wasn't all that impressed with the TKO. The shifting didn't feel as smooth, and the ratios didn't feel right.
Ratios on the TKO600 are essentially the same as the 4+3. Plus you don't have to swap out the 3.07 gears like you had to when you installed your ZF. You drove the car when the trans was brand new, it has smoothed up a bit.
I liked the Hurst shifter on your ZF better than the shifter on my TKO600, but once you get used to the CC5S TKO shifter it is pretty sweet. You can hit the gears pretty hard. I don't think the shifter feel difference is enough to choose one way or the other, all things being equal. Plus, I don't see the need for six gears with a torquey TPI.
The benefit to the TKOs are their strength. You will snap a u joint before you will hurt that trans.
