Default timing belt brand

Which in your opinion is a better brand for a timing belt, Kevlar, Toda, or an OEM?

OEM, even with big cams.
my friend mike had spec b's in his car for over 9 months and the OEM belt was fine.. tension was perfect. and yes, heat beat the **** out of that motor.

New OEM belts w/ the honda lettering in red are kevlar. I snapped it w/ my Toda B's at proper tension after 8k miles. I have a PE belt and it seems ok so far.

Default timing belt question.

with stock cams but with adjustable cam gear's should i go with the oem belt still? I don't plan on changing my belt for 60-80k after this maintenance duty is done.
