Per R9 part B, KOP items are exempt from the cost limitation. The glossary defines the Kit of Parts as the collection of items on any kit of parts checklist. As an example, see page 23 of the 2010 kit of parts checklist. The Thomas compressor has been in the Kit of Parts in the past, so it's on a checklist and thus exempt from the cost requirements.
