Sicce VS Eheim 1262

I am considering changing up the pumps on my skimmer and want to know how these two pumps compare. Right now I have a 35" tall ER skimmer with 2 meshed eheim 1262's. One of them is recirc'd, and I'm about to recirc the other one. If I replace them with 2 recirc'd sicce pinwheel pumps will I get any considerable performance boost?
