The FM "no electronics kit" is $2800, the bell kit is $1000 more. Is the coolant re-route (which may not even be a true re-route), distribution block, air scooper, and different dp design worth the extra $1000?
This money is starting to burn a hole in my checking account.

I've also thought about not buying an intercooler from either one, and getting a track dog racing IC, since Gary is my sister's neighbor, and I may be able to get a better price than the advertised one.

where do the water lines come from, that feed the turbo? How does everyone tap into them?
I've emailed begi twice on the coolant re-route, and they don't answer. The more I think about it...diy might be better in the long run, but will take forever.

But it also comes with more stuff: coolant bypass & reroute, air scooper, radiator cowl plate, etc. If you remove the cost of the added parts and compare just the hard parts, the BEGi kit is close to FM's in price. IMO the idea of going with BEGi's core components and TD's FMIC is very appealing.
Plus, you'll actually get your BEGi stuff. :gay:
