Weiand 7525 vs Edelbrock Performer TBI

Well, what's better? What will generate more HP and torque? Smoother curve? I mean, the Performer TBI can be had for 200 bucks. The Weiand is 185 with EGR and 77 bucks for an adaptor plate. Is the extra cash for the Weiand worth it? =D

the 7525 seems kinda big for a 305.

Do you need to lengthen the fuel lines with the 7525? What's the adapter plate for?
