Everyone talks about aftermarket ends but how strong are the OEM s14 ones?

I had KTS outer and the driver side one snapped on me doing a somewhat fast turn. My speedos not working so can't tell ya the speed, but I took corners like that before without a second thought, just happened to shear off yesterday.

I don't have money for SPL so I want to know the strength of the OEM outer. I normally daily but I've been to 2 all day grip track events, and probably 3 canyon runs since I got my license (4years). I know canyon runnings pretty dumb but I thought I'd just throw it in there cause more the info the better recommendation I can get.
