Default Timing Belt kit Blau, Ecs, Purems, Autohaus

1998 a4 30v runs hot and coolant does circulate well. To fix it I need a water pump/ t-stat. I think I would be good to do a timing belt at the same time as it has 193k on it. I read the archives and found that people had the worst time with ecs. Just looking for advice on which kit 30v's went with.

T-belt
idler roller
tensioner roller
hydralic tensioner
water pump
cam seals
crank seal
t-stat
o-ring
accesory belt
coolant

ecs-479.53 with the locking tools
Blau- 345.95 w/o tools
Purems-329.95 w/o the tools, coolant, cam seals.
autohaus 208.41: Includes, t-belt(41.70), idler roller(37.17), tensioner roller(53.52), water pump(59.61), t-stat(15.99), and o-ring(.42).

I assume this was "online" - call or email him, he can get all the stuff to you at a good price!
