It was only my second choice because of cost at the time. I am wishing that I had tried them instead (they look to have more ground clearance, not that my SLP's don't, just like to experiment).
If you call Lou, just tell him I sent you.

Gabe,
IMO, the first question you have to ask yourself is What are your goals for the car? People are always looking for the "best" something-or-other, but in the real world there is no such thing - there are always compromises. As trackbird pointed out in the linked post many of us started out with BMR, etc., for several reasons only to find out that there was something better out there for us. Ultimately, though, it depends on what you're looking for out of the car, what you're willing to spend, and what you're willing to deal with.

I think that was mentioned in the mass of threads that I linked you to (but it may get lost in the shuffle).
I'm not trying to get you to buy more expensive parts. I'm trying to keep you from buying expensive parts twice (expensive parts and then slightly more expensive parts to replace the first set). But, only you can decide what your goals and objectives are for the car. If you tell us you plans (other than "installing the whole catalog of parts"), we can try to help you with a package that works and maybe save you money in a few spots (sometimes, sometimes not).

Good points Those are some good points, now let me tell you what i want out of my car. I want reliability on and off the track, least road noise as possible as well. I want to feel my car pull without having to worry about something breaking. I understand that i cant have my cake and eat it too, but I just want something that can help lower my ET's, can handle the pressure of a mild stall converter, and be at least comfortable to daily drive.
Hope that gives you guys at least a glimmer of an idea to help me out...I really dont know where to start with all these "wanna be" companies out there.
Thanks,
Gabe

Using that as your must have criteria, it ain't gonna happen.
You can have a car that handles great and is tough as nails ... but it's gonna ride like crap.
You can have a great ride and acceptable handling, but stuff is gonna break if you pressure it.
Your ride can be acceptable and the parts tough as nails, but the parts just aren't gonna work to help your handling.
