Can you elaborate on what was wrong with your prints after installing? A properly configured 3DTouch will let you get an accurate bed mesh which will improve your prints, but only marginally if your bed is fairly flat to begin with. My guess would be something is off with your configuration, likely either a Z-Offset or a misconfigured mesh.

It was always either the nozzle was too close or too high no matter how much tweaking I did. I followed 3D Printscape's tutorials. I'd rather just go back to manually levelling the bed myself, my prints were all generally fine
Have you tried a repeatability test I. Your bltouch? Your mount could have to much flex in it, or you're probing too fast.
I don’t want to sound harsh, but I would suggest to figure out where you’re going wrong with the probe. Once set up properly, they take a lot of guess work out of getting the first layer right. I will never (willingly) use another printer without one.
