Default Hotchkis vs. BMR

Ok, BMR is definitely cheaper so right away it is more attractive. Then again, Hotchkis uses TIG welds where BMR does not. Kind of like handporting vs. CNC. I have also noticed that alot of people running high hp #'s and fast times are running Hotchkis. My car will be right at 450rwhp/425rwtq soon. Which one would be a wiser choice for getting that power down to the ground? Oh yea, anyone heard of BMR paint chipping and rusting?
I can get BMR 'streetrace' style adjustable LCA's and an APHR for the same price as Hotchkis Regular LCA's and APHR.

I like my BMR LCA's and adj. PHR. Had the Hotchkiss LCA's and the paint chipped on those. There good, but BMR works just as well IMO.

I had Hotchkis on my 92" camaro over priced so i went all out drag much cheaper. My 02" camaro has every BMR part except for springs and love every piece. Won't change a thing and the K-member is a part GM should have used at the factory. <img border="0" alt="[devil]" title="" src="graemlins/gr_devil.gif" />
