Default Which Kit?

Ok the thing is I've been jumping back and forth between these two kits. The only real differance is the manifolds as far as I can tell.
Kit 1:Full-Race Motorsports LLC "Everything Else is Half Fast"
I like this kit but its more expensive and the manifold seems a bit shorter then the other one by Peak Boost. Of coarse I'm looking at photos so I can't tell for sure.
Kit 2:PeakBoost B-series Topmount Kit
Keep in mind on the Peak boost kit I'll be upgrading it to match the Full Race kit. From what I can tell the Full Race kit is 500 dollars more with the only differance being the manifolds.
Basically I was wondering what the rest of you think. Also give me a reason why you think that way. I don't want to see three pages of "Full Race FTW" just because its the only kit you know of or because its the cool thing to do.. Its not a cheap choice so I'd like to make a good one..

I have been a FR promoter since before Geoff started his business. Their components are the best out there. I would get the FR kit man.

well everyone that has posted IMO is at the top of the honda game, I personally would listen to what the guy running 10.7's in a turbo honda, the guy running SUPER low 10's and one of the best tuners in the area

if you want to follow, i guess thats fine for you.....and from what i have seen, they both use the same tial parts, same garret turbo, same size piping etc.....so basicaly the question should be which manifold is better.

If the price difference is only $500 then go full race. Everything I've seen from them has been perfect with the exception of one prelude kit that didn't fit.

If it was my vehicle, I would choose full-race.
Why ?

I have dealt/seen cars with both products & many products in the industry.
I have talked to other tuners in the nation which have used both of the products etc....

Full-Race's products are much more advanced then your average manifold company using a jig.
They use a lot of computer cad technology, robotic tig welding etc...
