what are the high boost people running for apex seals, looking at an engine rebuild (just got a turbo II with a bad engine, and got a jspec sitting around) and would like to start out the right way so i dont have to run it hard for a year then end up rebuilding it right away, i have heard about alot of crap that they make the seals out of, ranging from the regular to polyurethane, to ceramic, and all that junk, just wondering which ones handle high boost and are pretty dependable, thanks

 

iv herd that some people that boost alot run 3mm but i have no idea that there made out of... iv seen a few people run 2mm at about mid boost...

 

thanks for answering me at least, i was looking at getting 3mm for sure, just wondering what was a good idea for material, i have heard that the ceramic ones will take alot of boost, but i also heard that they break. just wondering what would be sufficcient, thanks though...anyone else know anything?

 

Most people run the stock seals.

There's really no advantage going to 3MM seals.

Ceramic seals are going to cost you! Be prepared!
