Default Westom Magnum Combo?

Hi all, I've read a ton of threads about this awesome little speed demon, and I think I have to have one! My question is, is it more cost effecetive (MPH per Dollar) to get the combo with the West 50 V1 or just get the plane and buy engine/header/pipe separately? I have a predator 500 with a st 45 turning a 8.8x8.2 and I want a lot more speed. Say 170+ MPH. I want to hang with a Diamond Dust but have "real plane" looks.

The US Weston site sells the combo for $345 +shipping. Does this include the genisis pipe and manifold or just the motor? What other hardware is required? And is this the R version that they are selling? They say that it has been revised from the original, but nowhere does it say "R". Was there a version before the regular Magnum? Don't want to get burned by buying an obsolete product if somthing newer/better is available.

Thanks,
Nate
