Renntech or Brabus? Who's better?

Wassup everyone. I'm new to the forum and wanted to say hello.

This discussion has probably been discussed many times in many forums, but was just curious what people in here thought.

Which tuner would you go with, Renntech or Brabus?

I'm on the west coast so Brabus is more accessible, being that renntech is in florida.

Here are some interesting points to discuss.

-Renntech makes powerful normally aspirated engines.
-Brabus chooses forced induction kompressor(supercharged) engines

-Renntech cars tend to have better torque and low end.
-Brabus cars seem to have better highway and high end power.

I would appreicate other's input and their addition of pros and cons to this. Thanks.

My choice would be Brabus...their reputation and experience far exceeds Renntech...IHO

In many cases one can also go directly to their sources for hardware as long as you can locate your own qualified tech to sort it all out.
