If those 2 are your choices, then I'd say go with the Picco. You'll get more torque and hp out of it. I've never heard of Innotech.
 
I have a Omega 21 comp in my maxx with about 2.5 gallons through and it still get stuck TDC. Crapload of torque.

I know it's not the 15 your talking about, but it's the same maker that I couldn't find hardly any info on.

I'm waiting until it dies to post a full review on how good or bad it is. The only bad thing so far is that the pull start broke while I was breaking it in. The spring came detached. After I bent the hook a little and put some epoxy on where it hangs, I haven't had a problem since. I didn't see a lot of power from this engine until I hit about a gallon. I'm at 2.5 gallons like I said above and it still seems to be getting stronger with every tank I run through it.
 
Innotech aka LCollari/Innotech...very nice mills, more power than you may think. Actually higher in quality than Picco.

Do not judge the power of an engine by the manufactures statement. It's misleading to say the least. You'll find threads about what I'm saying and there is a current thread on the subject in this forum. Check it out.
