Message	OEM parts will most likely outperform and outlast many "off the shelf" auto parts trying to replicate OEM. As one example, search along the lines of "water pump" and you'll see many posts of people using Napa or Autozone water pumps, which fail after a few thousand miles or less. Just spend the extra money and go OEM, especially on vital engine parts.
