In recent years "FT" has added alloy rear hubs and hexes, both of which are unnecessary (If you're not going to adjust rear width the pin drive is adequate).

Also interesting to note, when was the last time AE offered a "Team" level B4 kit? If I'm not mistaken, that went away with the release of the B4.1, if not before.

Factory Team = strong Kool Aid.
To me, Factory Team Kit means that they are selling a kit that has the words Factory Team on it.

Now if you want to debate what made up a Factory Team Kit based on history then yes you are almost if not 100% correct.
