It certainly won't hurt!
Then again, I'm doubtful of any actual performance gain for this mod, by resetting the ECU. I'm no expert though. I can't say that I've ever felt a difference by resetting my ECU.......perhaps because I drive like Michael Schumacher.

As i have stated before LSD would be my first choice. The GS400 or 430 for example already has plenty of take off stock. Lsd would just make it handle turns better.

Give me the LSD diff over the TC any day of the week. TC is useful from a dead stop acceleration up until the stall speed. The LSD diff (assuming you get 3.76 gearing) will help acceleration from a dead stop all the way to redline, plus you get better traction in corners.
