Well if you're going to make a tuber I can't see how it's going to be a torsion rig.

A torsion tuber wouldn't be all that easy, really... Mebbe if you did it Stick style with the dual links.. Using the ends of the tuber as the pivot point mount...

4 link would be best for a tuber chassis.. By far...

I would say a Tuber rules out a Torsion suspension. If your going for the look of a tuber go the 4-link. To me a torsion type chassis is all go and no show, strictly performance. It's all about the twist of a main beam to get your articulation. A tuber is the opposite, a rigid, compact and light weight (1:1 anyway) platform to make a suspension work. In RC's a tuber is about looks. So the question is more of a Look or performance. Personally I prefer looks.
