Yes of course the Fastchip one is cheaper - some of the parts are the basis of the BB turbo conversion. Except all the bits that you *dont* get with the Fastchip job, you *do* get with BB. There is really far too much to go into here, about whats needed to do a proper job of turbcharging your F7P. I recommend that you ring up BB now, ask them to send you their turbo conversion brochure, then youll understand why the BB job is more expensive and youll wonder why you ever thought the Fastchip kit was gonna be value for money. There is no rivalry between the two companies, as I said, BB have worked closely with Mr Fastchip and flown him over from Holland a few times to their workshops, because hes done the conversion before himself and is a wiz with the engine management required.
Its just that the BB conversion is a proper job, roll in with a standard valver, roll out with a giant killing machine that is just as reliable and driveable as a normal valver. The Fastchip job is for people who dont mind getting their hands very dirty and can get all the other bits they need custom fabricated. From the Fastchip website:

Sp that means you still need all the boost pipework and the chargecooler (or intercooler if you can find room!) Plus an oil cooler is essential Id say, then extras like dump valve etc.
