They seem to cost more than the arp's in regards to the prices they sent me?

Suggested retail on the RWE-1055 HSK is $659.95 USD.

The M9 arp kit is $198.

$198??? Stock are probably better than those. I wouldn't cheap out on head studs especially if you're going want big power. In this case, I believe you get what you pay for.

Raceware is good to go. I have two and a half x stock hp and I run 'em.

Nik, they're plenty guys with 1000 hp running raceware.

Evoms is ridiculously over priced. 10mm head studs for 1400 lol.
