Default Fidanza twin vs Monster M5

Was super close to ordering the M5 from monster but i talked to the guys over at Fidanza and they offered me a KILLER price on their big twin disk w/ flywheel. http://www.fidanza.com/NewProducts.aspx

Difference would be about $150-200 less for the Fidanza... even with the $100 discount from Monster.

Opinions?

I voted for Monster (that goes without saying, since I am a dealer for them).

Just remember, the dollar ($$$) is NOT what you should be basing your purchase on. SURE, you can LOOK at it ($$$), but when you compare apples to apples, there really is no comparison between teh 2, as teh Monster is a better clutch. The 1 year warranty that Monster has, that alone is worth alot more than the difference in money you are looking at, then add teh customer service you will get from me and teh guys at Monster.

If you have any other questions, feel free to call/pm/email.
Thanks
