I agree that if we can afford a car then we should be able to pamper it. I may not change engine oil as regularly as you but I definitely pamper it in other ways such as modding it, others may say I am wasting $ but hey, its my $.

Back to the topic, I voted amsoil but definitely keen to try out other EO(except fastflo) if there is any good FR on them.

I mean skip those dining at posh restaurants.  :D I have no choice coz I a low mileage user, so I follow time instead of mileage anyway heard alot of feedback that some EO will cause engine to be noisy or rough at 7K or 8K mileage, so me changing at 5K is not actually a bad thing. Currently using Amsoil so already bought Redline so may change it by end of this month. The next one may be tempted to try Motul 300V EO.  :smile:

Novellus Legends:
10k- Ams S2k - Avage FC 14.5 , lesponsive
20k- Ams S2k - Avage FC 15.5 , lesponse drop bit but FC impov (AutoS ECU tune)
30k- Ams S2k - Avage FC 15 , lesponse drop , no ECU tune n FC drop.
40k till date - supid fastflo - Avage FC 15+ so far, car super slukish ( think due to supid TCM ECU tuning during FF challenge)

conclu - fastflo vs Ams 2k, Ams 2k will prob win a.e.t (after extra time)

Me too.. Engine sounded rough evenwhen stepped at 2k rpm...  Now with fast flo, not rough anymore. But FC drop quite a bit.

Suspect they use thicker oil for fast flo.

Yup. Now I using 40 series of another brand engine still like pretty smooth after 8k. Suspect is the thinner oil from Amsoil.
