I believe the one on the right ( rotrex oil cooler ) is the "Setrab" unit, correct me if I am wrong.
I also still cannot choose between KW and JR since it seems like they both have their pros and cons (with a small variance)

Nothing against KW, but the JR kit is beautiful. The new Oil Cooler is amazing and the quality is spot on. Worth the extra to get!
I'm finishing up my install now and it was really easy. I compare it to building ikea furniture. Instructions are step by step and everything is individually packaged so you know what it's used for.
I have a few morning fittings to complete today and than the ECU flash and I'm done. Well, I have an aluminum driveshaft to put on still...
I could have finished it in a day, but had to make a few Lowes stops (needed larger sockets for my pulley install) and Auto Store (did an oil change too).
Plus, what I looked at when getting a kit were a few things: How active are the sellers on the forums? What does the customer service look like? Any issues thus far with the kit from other users?
Here are my answers after several months of research: Active on forums: YES. You will see Oscar Jr online answering any and all questions needed. Customer Service: Absolutely! When I picked up my kit (granted I live close to JR), I had the opportunity to sit down with Oscar Jr and Team to review the instructions page by page by page. I spent the better part of two hours there asking questions and they were glad to help. We swapped stories, got a history lesson about JR, and they know their stuff. They know Rotrex and SC's very well! I also had an opportunity to chat with CSG Mike over several weeks and when purchasing the kit. He knows his thus if and will NOT steer you wrong. Any issues: Absolutely NONE so far. In fact, look a few threads above this and you'll see a spreadsheet with NOTHING written...no issues...nada. That says something. And the fact that CSG has been beating the crap out of it since they installed it and have no issues says something... Have you see the way CSG Mike drives?!?!? He's an animal on the track!
Get JR. You won't regret it. I did my research, made the calls, talked to a bunch of people, and went with this kit. Plus, it is a HUGE bonus for us CA folks to have the CARB sticker.
