Rebuild kits?

I have been searching around and it seems that Rotary Aviations rebuild kit is the cheapest. Is there any particular reason for this. The only thing I can see is that the inner and outer oil control rings arent listed really. If anyone can point me in the right direction as far as a COMPLETE rebuild kit goes it would really help. Thanks in advance. Oh by the way I also am debating which apex seals to use. I am most certainly going to be using used housings. I want something that will take some abuse and last. I have a s5 streetported turbo, 3in full exhaust, FMIC, Apexi safc, greddy boost controller, and 720cc secondaries. I plan on running 12lbs and occasionally up to 15. Thanks for all the help.

I have no personal experience with RA seals, but I do with Atkins.. Their rebuild kit is really nice and their seals seat well into used housings. Lots of the gurus on this forum use the Atkins kit because it has a good bang:buck ratio. The Atkins kit DOES come with the oil control rings+oil o-rings. The only thing I think it doesn't come with is the oil control ring springs.
