well, i wouldn't call myself an expert or anything, but a couple of observations; i'd spend the extra $10 and get an RBX from dangerden. the barbs on the XTC seem very close, getting hoses on (and then clamping them) would be a major pita. also, the mounting holes for the top are counter-sunk (not a good thing), and VERY close to the edge, both of which make me nervous. and i'm guessing the RBX will out-perform the XTC, which you mentioned you aren't very concerned with, but hey, it never hurts, right? so that's just my $0.02
