Please substantiate your claim that Motul is better than Redline.
Otherwise you could be misleading readers.

Would you mind sharing your experience on Shogun EO in terms of responsiveness and FC?
May I check what is the grade you choose and how much extra you top up pls?

Hi I usually top up about $30 bucks extra for this oil from package A...if i remember correctly
Because i have only tried 3 brands so far, mine is based on the experience with the 3.
I find the std oild TCM gives Syn is not as good as Shogun for FC.
I am gonna be honest when i say that MY latio feels underpowered always...i have had gearbox changes that has helped so when i think of EO, my concern is always with FC
FC with Shogun inside...no complaints.
I am monitoring my FC with 2nd or 3rd top now. appears to be getting better...with Hicom it averaged 420km for about 40litrs....now moving back to 500plus Km or so for 40 litres
I know other factors influence but genrally my drive style & highway vs city driving stay very similar month on month
At abt 5000-6000 Hicom was making FC go up for my car & also felt a loss pf power agin..this may have been CVT gearbox issue related
I suggest you try all the recommended here keep a log then decide which is the final oil
My car is now 61000plus milage so i have had 6 oil changes. 1x TCM base oil, 1x Hicom 4x Shogun...my poref is with Shogun for now
but if any bro can convince that FC improves with another brand for the avg of the 10K, i will surely try....
pls note TCM does only a minor px cut if you bring your own oil in
I saw Shogun at Giant, wanted to buy but decided not to after spoke with BT TCM saying they take away $30-40 only....not worth the trouble..plus the oil would have caused abt $90 for 4 litres at Giant...

i using fastflo now,
fc drops although it could be due to wifey also using car sometimes, feels it not so responsive especially during hot day :nonod:
will be using back amsoil 5w30 for next servicing, used them for my 10, 20 & 30k servicing, am satisfied with it.
hmm, if shogun is good, may try it thus no need go buy engine oil myself.

I fully agree with you. :smile:
However, I am just returning the same treatment that these very same guys gave me. ::)

shogun is a good oil..very responsive compare to fastflo, if i remembered correctly i used it for my 20k, only downside was, when its due for servicing u must go change bcoz the FC shoot sky high :out:
