Not Ranked
I've been looking at all the kits & turnkey minus companies for a while now .....
1. PS is possible but NOT needed
2. Undercar exhaust is rare - but ya can't get 'bitten' when they are under there.
3. EFI/Carb - EFI more reliable ? Carb easier to play with yourself ? EFI better fuel management ? I'd ask the engine builders what their opinions are, and experience is.
4. IRS/Live - I'd go IRS but that's me. For most driving a Live would be fine, but when push comes to shove (say when your drifting thru a turn to come out on the racing line with the hammer down hard) IRS would probably be better.
5. Accident resistance performance - about the same as a motorcycle - regardless of the brand of car.
6. From what I've read you'd fit in them all, but maybe that extra 2" some have will be a little more comfortable.
7. AC - don't know
8. builders in SE - must be some if not plenty.
9. Vendors - your own reasearch will answer that 1 over time.
On your choices, I'd put Unique in (or back in) the mixing bowl. I don't own 1, and have not seen 1, but those that do have them love em and the cost is right in there considering the other names on your list.
Keep researching :-)
