If by better kits you mean kits that are a little cheaper and produce more power then you are right. However, this will likely be the best plug and play kit on the market for the FR-S. Everything will be ready right out of the box including the ECU tune. It can be installed and maintained by a factory technician and the warranty will be intact. For many people who do not like or do not have the skill to wrench on their own car this will be a huge plus. The convenience and engineering that goes into producing such a total package is why it will be very expensive.
They do not need to sell many of them in order to make it legal for their race car. They just have to have them available for purchase by the public. I am just guessing here like everyone else but I think that those that think the kit will sell for 3-4K are the same people who thought the FR-S would sell for 21K.
