Default what timing belt are boosted guys running?

I'm looking to go boost pretty soon on my D16Z6 and i just ordered the water pump/timing belt combo. I just realized the whole thing about aftermarket timing belts handling stress better. On one of the aftermarket's websites it said the stock belt broke after 1200 hours @ 6,000 rpm... i mean that seems kind of rediculous to me.

What i was really wondering was if you're boosted right now are you running a stock timing belt or an aftermarket one. I saw a Gates aftermarket one for 60 bucks on ebay that's "three times stronger" than OEM...

what do you guys think?

Ebay and 3x stronger is a contradiction in itself.

Just use Honda.

1200 hours at 6000 RPMs, LOL! Who the what the why the ****?
