Certainly you've got more experience with these seals than I do. In the roughly 15k miles that I've been using these seals they haven't really left any chatter marks on top of what was already there. I'm also running the stock OMP with an RA adapter and idemitsu plus 1/4oz per gallon in the tank so I'm probably over oiling the engine in certain situations, maybe that's helping? I won't argue that they leave chatter marks compared to the factory seals, but they have saved a few of my engines which is one of the reasons I run them. In my case they've really prolonged my engines.

So, what do you rec?

Yes, the extra oiling is most certainly helping! And I don't have an issue with the idea of "over oiling" ! It does more good than bad in these little two strokes of ours!

I recommend NRS 1 piece for NA and ALS 2 piece for boosted aplications. I also dont mind atkins cryo'd 2 piece seals either.
