Air Filter: $50
Thermostat: $100
Total: $3625 (shelf tune) or $3925 (dyno tune)
Cosworth 1.3 retail: $5250
Difference: $1625 or $1325
Benefits? Cosworth keeps your factory warranty, Doing it yourself keeps $1325+ in your pocket for other stuff.
I can see choosing either way. To some upgrading under warranty is a major factor/benefit. To others its meaningless.

You missed out the midpipe due to the different design for cosworth so that is another 500.
