Default Thought the APR kit was different due to all the RS4 OEM bits...

If the ASP and AWE kits are basically the same, that makes my decision easy...

Default sarcasm...

AWE and ASP run different software and hardware, theyre two different kits. ASP tends to run a little more boost in it's OTS form, and is faster than AWEs OTS kit. APRs kit has all those RS4 parts, so its $$$. Some say the RS4 parts are at their limit with the APR kit. STFA.

Im not speaking for any of these tuners BTW, this is from what i understand.

Default ASP has best customer service.

Not to mention their products are top notch. Apr has good hardware too. I don't like the stepped MAF housing in the AWE kit.
