I'm on Rotella right now but as it gets colder & switching to a lighter weight Amsoil is my first choice just because Motul is so damn expensive. Great synthetic two thumbs up!
I order it on-line they have a websight. You can also find local dealers. Very popular with the racing community in the midwest both car and motorcycle.
11.50 per quart online order, i think i am gonna switch to amsoil and bit lighter oil for winter 0w-30 and see how the car likes.
i use it and its da shit~! ive used 4-5 different tpypes of premium synthetic oils but this one is #1 on the list. i used to have sticky pedals when the weather was cold or cold starts but not nomore. and its easier to rev match when downshifting as well. i reccomend this oil to everyone. i get mine thru bob the oil guy and its 100$ for 2 oilchange worthes.
Is this really any better than German Castrol 0w30? I can find the GC at most autozones for $6 a quart.
I ran GC last winter and had no problems. I am running Rotella T right now and it seems that both oils function nearly as the same weight (minimal difference in oil pressure b/w the two). Our winters never have worried me, it is the summer thats the problem
I use Motul and love it. It is not the cheapest stuff but for my baby I can live with it. It's like $10.00 a quart.
I have a question for you guys... how do you know which oil "works" better?? I've switched from reg. dino, to Mobil 1, to Castrol syntec... The only thing I "know" is that my car doesn't like Mobil 1(burns up quick). Other than that, dino/synthetic all comes out black after 3k, and I've never felt any diff. in power or anything. I use Castrol syntec cuz its only $20 for a 5 qt jug and it gives me peace of mind. But, I'm coming to the conclusion that unless your autocrossing/tracking frequently, it doesn't make too much of a diff. as long as you change every 3k....
well... we do mt runs/trackdays/autox. not to mention ricer fly bys... and we often race on tracks like 85, 400, 75, occasionally 285. mainly we are worried about the fact that even if its the same intervals between changes the wear on the engine might be different.
