Depends on your budget and needs...
If you want an EFK, aux oil and PS coolers, for a total thermal solution, the ASP kit is perfect... but you'll pay for it.
If you just want a good set of IC's, the AWE's are superb for SMIC's.
RS4's are the cheapest option, but you may pay the piper with regard to pressure drop.

Problem with the ebay FMIC's is the potential for pressure drop...
Half the chage-rows of the AWE/ASP offerings with over twice the core length. Makes for nice IAT's, but at the price of considerable pressure-drop... which can put the beat-down on your turbos over time.
