oem slave cylinder

Has anyone here had issues with any slave cylinders other than Mitsu OEM ones?

Most auto parts stores only sell the lancer slave cylinder, even though its listed for an Evo. They don't align correctly and the plunger is at an angle. Over time, it puts excessive wear on the piston seals and they begin to leak prematurely. I would stick with OEM.

Thank you. They don't seem as strong either. I'm having trouble getting into gear while shifting at WOT. We bleed the system and it shifts smooth as ever but goes back over a few days. Other than clutch, motormounts, and shifter bushings, the slave cylinder is all that changed and was NAPAs bottom of the line slave cyl.
Just got an OEM slave and it is going in tonight.
