Personally I'm a huge fan on taking an immunity as AR, and having one hab narrow, one hab very wide. I find this faster than TT, as I only have to terraform ONE field (0.33 terra costs, compared to 0.7, if you like to think of it like that) to get most of my terraforming benefit at all but my 'wide-edge' worlds. This speed means I can invest lots of res into tech and miners early on, to mitigate AR's key weaknesses - having the highest tech of your neighbours (even against -f) in the early game as AR is very achievable. If you can push that lead to hold through mid without looking too dangerous, then the game is essentially won.
I'd only consider TT if I thought it was going to make my early/mid game faster. Late game performance really isn't very relevant to AR - if you've made it that far, your mineral advantage will probably carry you through, it doesn't matter much what your resources are, really. High resources will lead to a fast win, sure. But you are going to win anyway, if you have enough resources to survive until your opponents crunch on minerals.
Hence I consider an immunity a much more valuable purchase than TT. I'd consider BOTH however. But as we see in Alex's race above, AR really likes it's LRTs. So TT starts looking *really* expensive when it's your 7th or 8th LRT. I believe ISB and ARM are more important (see other threads for endless debates on these Ultimately none of the LRTs are essential for AR, of course. Beautifull game Stars, awesome balance in the race wizard, really awesome.)
