Everyone iv heard of having these, says they suck. I have never heard anything even remotely good about these rings.

Re: Toatal Seal piston rings (streetracer)

i had a set of totalseals on my b16 for turbo. TOTALSEAL=TOTAL GARBAGE! i built that motor with paulus at aebs so i know everything was coo with the engine. we measured every clearance twice over. i had plumes of bluish smoke comin out the tailpipe from the second i fired it up and they got worse the more i drove it. we confronted totalseal last year at sema and their reply was.... and i quote... "well.. we didn't really research the honda rings" wtf is that?? do yourself a favor and DO NOT BUY TOTALSEAL RINGS.
