Not all aftermarket ecms support the Torque converter clutch, and most of the TCC controllers are so bad, using the orginal ecm for the TCC is a common answer.

THOU, there is a TCC specific controller in the works that promises to be a valuable option, ie it uses oem like programming for TCC management.
