105's is a way better group than the tiagra. But you should ride both bikes and see which one feels better. Also what year are both bikes?

2005

2010
gary fisher with tiagras
I would go with the newer of the 2. Yes, Izzy is right about 105>tiagra. even though 105 trumps tiagra, i will take any newer group anyday.
It all depends on your budget.
