Default Included parts...Pure includes the tensioner damper, I think it works out that PureMS is about $10.
cheaper than ECS. Plus after the small issues my friend had when we did his timing belt on his 30v 2.8, I'd go with Pure. I believe ECS sent him the wrong sized belt which delayed us about a week, and he also had some service issues afterward. Just another reason that would sway me to Pure.

Default BTW, WMS charges ~$300 for labor to do a timing belt/water pump replacement, correct?
I'm about to make a trip down south this spring is that's the case. =)
