That ebay one doesn't look very good, Primaries look to be different lengths.
You get what you pay for when it comes to performance. I'm paying the extra and getting an SBD on. I had one on my old XE and loved it.
4-1 is better for track use but 4-2-1 is better for road use.

On a fairly standard XE you won't go wrong with the SBD type A. That ebay one won't have had the development that the SBD has on the rollers etc.
