oem = it works



aftermarket: might be cheaper (i dont know), should be reusable for the most part, should handle an overheat situation better.



BUT



it might not

Pineapple Racing just came out with a new kit as well. I think both inner and outer are reusable and it's not the encapsulated type. It's around $190-$200.

OEM is nice. Always works use it everywhere. Except I am liking for coolant seals only the RA ones.
