Interesting vid - Very well explained.

But what is the advantage of this mod?

Greater mid range fuel pressure.

So is this an alternative to an APR or Autotech HPFP when combined with Stage2+?

Yes it's another manufacturer.

alot is made of the QC that APR do on their own pumps (and how much it costs).
In your opinion is the AWE unit of sufficient quality?

I don't think you'd beat the APR for quality but at a price.

I'm not thinking of getting a HPFP but would go for APR on exchange via JKM if I was.
