Take a deep breath, relax and instead of trying to convince yourself
that the kit you spend your $$ on is the best consider that racegas is every software hacks dream because it covers up amateaurish programming. A strong running car without any issues or constant need of revisions are the yard stick for Motronic tuning not the other way around.

you have to remember, they prob also sell "more" kits than others (more)..........
APR sells quite a few APR Stage 3 kits...but I'm sure there are more AWE kits out there than others (ARP, ASP, AMS, MTM, etc.) Therefore, the more kits installed, the more % that may have issues, especially if the car was not 100% healthy to begin with. That aside...if you start with a healthy car, the AWE kit gives you excellent performance with very good driveability day in and day out on their main Stock Airbox file. I am now getting 280-300 Miles a tank (about 20 MPG) and pull consistent 4.2-4.3 FATs on 91 Craptane + Toluene. No coldstart issues or misfire issues from the AWE kit itself. If you think about it...though some of the issues with Stage 3 kits may be attributed to the fueling kit itself/programming, in many many cases, it is the car itself not being completely healthy to begin with (not the case with Pauls Allroad).
