OK I was wondering when you buy parts for the engine do you buy brand name or OEM. Like in drug stores you can get the brand name or get generic and sometime they are the same as the original but sometimes there is slight differences.

Give some examples where it worked out well or the OEM was not as good or didn't last as long or maybe the OEM was better.

OK they don't have to give the names but use terms as OEM or Brand Name parts. Secrets I thought great race drivers rely on driving skills not secrets.  ???
