$3000 vs $1500 ???

OK, so here's the deal.
Remember...I know just enough to be dangerous.
A very reputable company and I are about to power my DIY three wheeler.
For about $1500. I can get a SEPEX kit installed and be on my way. I'm told 16-18 hp and 30 mph should be no problem.

For $3000. I can get an A/C indiction motor with twice the torque, 25hp and 30 - 40? mph. I'm not looking to fly with traffic, just be able to scoot along if necessary.

Guys and Gals...what would you do and why would you do it?

I see GEMS ramped up from 5 hp to 7.5. Is it me or is 16-18 and/or 25 hp really powerful?

I guess I'm asking is the performance going to be that different for twice the investment?

As always,
Thank you.
