Default TB kits?

Well i was looking through the tb stick and saw 2 kits mentioned. One was a puremotorsport.com and the other was ecs tuning. Is one kit better than the other?

go through the newbie guide. Has all sorts of info. My personal favorite is the Techtonics, which utilizes a Borla muffler. Sounds great. The guide has sound clips and everything.

I look through the noob guide and found nothing about timing belt kit's. But i found some names being thrown around. Im just looking to see if the ecs tuning kit is worth a the extra money over the pure motorsport kit?

hahaha! these abrreviations are getting out of hand. I thought you ment "turbo back" like an exhuast kit. I know nothing about timing belts, yet. I'll have to learn eventually though
