I expected nothing less from Tekno. I'll be ordering this kit soon with no worries.

Yes, the SCT410.3 and the new EB48SL use 4mm turnbuckles and rod ends for the steering and camber links.
The only turnbuckles that are the same are the steering links. The original SCT used 5mm threaded turnbuckles and rod ends for the camber links. We tested the smaller links extensively and found them to be more than strong enough for the SCT and SL. I even ran them on my EB48 with no problems.
They're actually good enough for our ET and NT, although with the stresses those diffs see (with the larger tires) it's better to stay with metal. They are also lighter, and significantly cheaper. We did a lot of things to cut cost in smart places to keep the street price the same as the original SCT410 while offering as many of our option parts as possible (lightened outdrives, aluminum balls and bushings, fully machined chassis, secured aluminum hexes, split diff, better droop screws, aluminum center driveshaft, etc.)
We had heard this as well and were skeptical about the reliability. Once we made ours they were tested by all our drivers in all of our vehicles. If they didn't hold up we wouldn't sell them.

Has anyone got theirs on the track yet. If so, what's your first impression?

a battery question, anyone use the dual 4mm bullet packs?
If so, what was your thought on using those, but not bot sets of bullets? Looking for some lipos for the sct410 and thinking of the VANT ones, but trying to decide between just a straight wire or the dual bullet packs. I probably would use them only in the 2 bullet mode, but not bad having the options.
5mm ones right now but more than I want to pay.
