Best apex seals?
Hi guys,
Just about to place an order on Atkins Rotary's apex seals. But I know RxParts's have a good reputation here. But $200 vs $500...
What are the best, overall apex seals? What do you guys run on your single turbo 300whp setups?

There is no best. Your seal choice should match your application and use of the car. For stock builds I use Mazda oem. They have a good balance of strength and longevity. However any significant detonation will break them. For anything modified I use RX Parts. They are super strong, yet do not destroy the rotor housings prematurely like some other aftermarket seals. In fact I have them in a customer's car with a full season of drag racing and when the motor was torn down for inspection the housings were still mint.
