anything 4 or 5 bolt and from a company that you can trust to have them machined correctly....

here are a few suggestions in no paticular order....

Golden Eagle Mfg
Endyn
UGR
Buddy Club
Toda
Peak
AEM - new ones should have 5 bolts now
skunk2 - I did have a problem with a set of skunk2's before but i think they resolved the issue....

ones I dont recommend are....

Old 3 bolt AEM
JG - sont know if they fixed the problem but it was not machined correctly
OBX - stay away
ebay specials

they look differant than the old ones....kinda like a new look, as far as i know....

The Golden Eagles are nice....so are the UGR Toda style gears.....Good bang for the buck and are zeroed out.

I made a special tool to check to see if a Cam gear set to zero is really zeroed out...so far I have seen issues with the JG, OBX, and Ebay Specials.....
