From the linked thread for the MAP Performance kit:

Quote:
The only major thing will be the fuel pump in my opinon followed by the cutting of the crash beam bar for the intercooler pipe. But you can always go with our optional crash beam bar that will be bolt-on.
Emphasis mine. If a buyer truly wants to know "which kit will provide the safest/daily driver approachable set up" then this is not it. Chopping up the front crash beam is not safe, and destroys the car's ability to distribute crash loads in a frontal collision.

Replacing the front crash beam with their optional replacement increases the price (won't know how much until it's actually released), and I would need to see crash testing data before I trusted the safety of my wife/kid/friends to that replacement bar.
