I have got an EM400 as you might know David.
Great mount, a real pleasure to setup and use. No PEC is hardly worth knowing about as guiding takes care of that little issue. PE is quoted at 3.5" but I have checked mine and it is 1.5". Many people report similar results too. So this is probably what you get normally.
My only gripes are that these mounts don't have a home position and do not have its own purpose built hand controller by Tak. If Takahashi were to get their act together and include these items these mounts would compete with other more expensive ones from other manufacturers.
By way of example Mike Sidonio uses an NJP mount and you have seen the results he gets. Everything really revolves around you determination to make things work. Even a slouch like me can get reasonable results with a Tak mount.
Anyway if I was to do it all again I would most likely buy an ME but at todays prices. At the time this was the cheapest option for me to go with the Tak.
Good luck with your decision.
