Anyone got experience of using stagger-gap turbo turbine end oil seals?
In theory they should offer a lot better oil control, avoiding oil ingress into the exhaust from bearing housing... are they that much better than standard end-gap seal rings?

thanks for the input guys, I can't see any downside apart from a few quid - the gains and benefits have got to outweigh the small additional cost, difficult to see why they bother using standard end-gap seal rings at all??
