The $400 comes down to how you want your kit to look.
The only reason that JDM has to include the re-lo brackets is because the Roush air box is huge and needs the room, no real benefit in my view. I agree the Roush air delivery system looks better (or more stock) but I don't see that to be worth $400, after all how much do you LOOK at the engine. I think Jim needs to re-think his new price again, if the difference were $100 then it would be easy. I also like that Mike provides the 3 separate tunes, by the way they are. 1. Base tune used for towing 2. Street tune, better performance 91 octane OK and 3. Performance tune, best power but 93 octane only. Jim get us 3 tunes and a better price and we will beat your door down.
