How it goes easy tomorrow wich is Monday I call them and get a refund I talked with Andy sidewinder rep Saturday and I was asking all these ? About how my sprocket was sunstar and about how my chain was a cheap one and he said there all 100% guaranteed he still didn't explain why my chain was from Spain wen it should of been made in the USA then he said Iam not Gona go back and forth with u if u want ur money back let me know Monday so that's how u get ur money back ... What do U guys think is the best chain for a raptor 660

Pretty much any name brand o-ring(or x-ring/T-ring etc.) will be just fine. A 660 Raptor just isn't breaking a quality 520 chain. I personally have had good luck with Primary Drive, but I also believe a chain and sprockets are wear items that should be replaced and have never bought into the "lifetime" thing.
RK, DID, Renthal are all good choices. Proper maintenance is the key to longevity regardless of brand, then replace when the sprockets are worn out.
