Personally I think they are the same exact thing with the exception that there's obviously more quality control with the Waltersons(Much, much better then Mato's), plus you get the different gear ratios. I 've never owned the Taigen/Asiatam style but have never cared for how the motors are layed out(end-to-end) as it just makes custom installs all the more difficult. Plus I've seen a lot of quality issues with those as well(but not as bad as Mato's). The most noticeable difference is the smoothness of the motors, especially at slow speeds. I know Waltersons went with a higher quality motors(5 poles as opposed to 3 pole motors on Asiatam/Taigen/and Mato) with their gearboxes..Definitely my new favorite drive train....
