It's not the HP you're buying its the quality build and the type of metal.

If I had to do it again I'd get stainless ones rather than pacesetters.

Spend extra time searching then, they both have ups and downs, Kooks QTP might work better for you or Pacesetters might work better.

IMO if you are going for real all motor power and a big buildup kooks/qtp are better but lighter builds or people like me who will go F/I pacesetters work better.
