I used an OEM when I had my head off ages ago. As far as cometic I haven't heard anything good in the 4G63 world

search, there's a thread on here that compares headgaskets. I say go with cosworth or hks. I heard people say cosmetic wasn't sealing right.

OEM....all day long. If you're exceeding the limits of the OEM headgasket, you should be looking into o-ringing the deck. Case-in-point, the OEM will hold up to just about anything you could throw at any other headgasket by itself.
