Evoms GT700 of AWE 750 package?

I have a 997 6-speed car and I want to do some turbo upgrades and its a toss up between the EVOMS GT700 kit or the AWE 750 kit. Anyone have any opinions on which would be the better kit?

I have never used the AWE but i hear good stuff about it, I can say about the Tune that I got from EVOMS is just hands down Perfect.

The AWE kit is fast as hell...I'm sure either one will be spectacular...just pick one and go for it...agonizing over which one will only delay your enjoyment! And in NJ...you don't have a lot of time before the lousy weather comes a rollin'

Being in New Jersey, why not take a ride over to AWE to check out their facility. I have AWE's exhaust and GIAC flash through them. I think being comfortable with your installer is just as important as which kit you use.

From all the owners here on the board, I don't think I've ever heard anything bad about either upgrade...They are pretty refined and well tested systems.

x2 on AWE. You're really only about an hour away from them in Princeton. Definitely check out their facility and most importantly their car. The nice thing about being so close is if you ever need work done on your car you're not very far away from them. Hope this helps

Cant go wrong with either. If you can drive and have those guys install it then the closest one is a no brainer.

Agreed. All else being equal and if it is possible, being close to the tuner for me would be a huge and critical factor.
Things don't always work as planned, things may not always come out as planned, and "things" may come loose. Especially true IMO for these high power packages.
The peace of mind of just driving the car to the tuner to be checked is priceless.

How does a car that runs 300 kph in 23 seconds only do a 60-130 mph in 6.8 seconds...you'd think it would be faster than that.

The car ran 100-200km/h in 6.0sec and 200-300km/h 13.5sec

Here is 100-200km/h ran
