All in all they all do the same job, can not say one is better than the other. Although I have a set of BBK's on my car.In saying this I would buy the bolt-in's and then have a small Weld Beed run on both sides at both ends. Just make sure that when installing them that the car is sitting on all four's. Jack the car up and place ramps, blocks, or anything you can to sit the car down on without fear of it falling while doing the install.

Maximum Motorsports or Competition Engineering.

The Comp Eng ones have a plate that goes up and along the side of the torque boxes so you can add a little strength there too.

If you can find them, Kenny Brown SFCs are good.
