Default timing belt question, oem or aftermarket?

A euro car place near me that does good work quoted about 550-600 with standard stuff, im going to add snub, cam seals, and spark plugs.

If i ordered the ecs kit, or http://www.dieselgeek.com/Detail.bok?no=306 that kit, will i notice a difference (besides it being a little cheaper, maybe not with shipping) ? Is ECSs kit, snubs, and plugs actually any better than the OEM stuff?

The only difference you will feel isin your wallet.If you get new plugs, go withNGK Iridium IX. I run those in my car - no real power advantage, just reliability.
