These are just based on my experiences with both.
The 9x11 is a good converter. It uses a larger clutch than a single disc 9.5 or 10" converter which helps it take WOT lock-up in the faster cars. I don't think they spool well at all with larger turbo's like a 70mm because the 11" part of it makes it hard to get a lot of stall speed.
The multi disc Vig is also a good piece. The multiple disc can lead to issues with noise as well as grabbing like has been talked about. The solution is usually letting the car get up to temp before trying to drive it. Since they are a 9.5 they can have a higher stall so they work well with the larger turbo's than the 9x11.
For smaller turbo cars the 9x11 works well. For anything that needs over 3000 rpm the Vig will work better. Both will be effected if you have any issues with the TCC solenoid.
