throttle body question

so i just did a boost leak testand found a leak at the tb. Did some looking around and it sounds like its my tb shaft seals. So my question is which seals to use (holds boost best 22psi) Works, Mach V, or Napa? If the ones from napa work id rather get those cause its a local pick up. thanks

I don't think it matters which you go with. I got the ones from Mach V.

But an install tip for you, when your installing the new seals, put the TB shaft in backwards. Lube the seal up with the dielectric grease and slide it over the shaft, use a 10mm socket to tap it into place. Pull the shaft out and install it the correct way, then install the 2nd seal. This will keep the seals lined up and they will go in easier.
