I currently own a nib Eraser PP and was just thinking about selling it to get a
Puer Fuel.
My question is are these balls too simlimar to change my choice? Would I be wasting my time??

KMAN, see my SuperMiniReview in the Roto board.  I don't have an EPP, however, specs alone are different.  The EPP is 2.539 , .050, the Pure Fuel is 2.55, .056, longer with more flare than the EPP in core specs alone.

Both are 1500 polished particle pearls.  Roger (MustangGuy) can better answer your question.  The Fuel series balls have strong cores, stronger than the Eraser I believe.

Just for a broad comparison...same bowler, same lane, same drill and coverstock prep on each ball, the Pure Fuel would probably be stronger, especially on the back.  The EPP would want to roll a little sooner, ...but this comparison is on core specs alone.

Email Roger : RogerN@rotogrip.com, or just call him, he's always there 888-450-6920

Hmm...Price wise I would stick with the Eraser Pearl Particle.  The Pure Fuel is a high end retail ball.  So it really depends on what reaction you are looking for.  Both are very aggressive on the backend.  

If we compare

PF                                            EPP
RG 2.55                                       RG 2.53
DIFF .056                                     DIFF .050
Cover-pearl particle (different)              Cover-pearl particle
core - asymmetrical (stronger in the midlane) Core-symmetrical
MB located on ball for fine tunning

Overall similar balls, but you will see different backend reactions.  With the Pure Fuel suggested retail is $209.95 (depending on where you go) and you are definitely getting your money's worth out of this high performance bowling ball.  I have not thrown an EPP so about the best I can do is make comparisons for you.  I would check out some of the reviews on the EPP and give it a week or so for a few more review on the Pure Fuel and go from there.  Otherwise if you are still stumped on what to do please call me at the number in the above post for furuther information.

Thanks,
