    Hrmm.. I just bought 5 quarts of the stuff.... I'll try Castrol next service I guess.. I used to use Castrol for my TT and it was silky smooth.. Although Mobil1 on my car made a difference for me, pity my bolt is leaking it all out.. lol

    How's your turbo-charge route going?

    my turbo route is coming on slowely. Im about to rebuild my diff end of this month with a comptech system or a puddymod system. then im going to get my new clutch then finally the turbo kit
    a bit worried since ive still got awhile to get off my pz (just over 2 years) so im having second thoughts now.
    im also looking at doing a custom setup involving a gt2871r turbo instead of a standard greddy kit..or i mite even end up doing a mase kit
    only time can tell i guess

    the reason why i use 5/40 is because it is a full synthetic oil and for some reason my engine doesnt burn it anywhere as quick as the semi synthetic 10/40
    does anyone else experience similar scenario?

    strangely enough, when I bought the car the previous owner was running the OEM FEO mineral 10W-30 and in the first few months that I had it with that oil it didn't burn anything at all.
    as soon as I did my first change to the full synthetic Nulon 10W-40 oil consumption began. It's nothing major and I'll live with it because the car runs better, but its strange

    Go super charge - so you can take it off if you get busted.. You can buy covers that hides everything!

    Ok, Back to the topic. I guess I'll give NULON a go next time round, might go buy it first though.. Anyone use HAMP filters?
