As for the BD, I have yet to see one that could keep up with a properly set-up and driven Tekin 203, much less 208 so you can keep your expensive, un-upgradeable soon to be paperweight.
I ain't start something, its just what I have seen here locally. It may just be poor setup like you guys have said. BD is upgradeable, its just not a huge talking point. So far it isn't close to needing it.

As for Tekin being fast, they are been beaten by pretty much everything in my area at the moment. It seems to have a very narrow window to get its performance right up there... Something others speedo's don't have much problem with. I think most people still running Tekin do so because they think somehow they will get another update that provides a huge speed increase, so they hang on and wait.
