I heard about someone using it once before and had to re-torque it a few times and also noted a funny smell for the first few hundred km's that was presumably the gasket heat cycling.
Personally, I've never seen a stock one fail, and have re-used 10 year old ones and never had a problem. Thats one factory piece that doesn't need re-engineering. Only reason to buy a different type is money, and at that point the product may not work as well.
