The stock 3 piece will seal better than anything else and will hold just as much power. However tend to warp the edges of the rotor due to the movement allowed. I personally like the hurly 2 piece race seals, which gives more stability and stronger springs for less flutter in high rpms. After I blew my motor with 80k on it, my rotor edges were warped from the apex seals, and I was forced to have them milled to 3mm. I would much rather leave them 2mm, but I haven't had any problems with the 3mm.
