My friend who owns a performance shop put this in his M3, said it feels more powerful, but he hasn't done a dyno run yet, or hasn't checked for any benefit in the mileage department.

12 bucks a quart!!!!! shit man! oh well this will be the mot expensive oil change in history for the TL but i got my boy to go n get it from the "dealer nearest me"

Tripnbeats

also whats funny is its 100% fully synthetic...... i pull up the data sheet for it and it says
base oil 80%
other additives 20%

so is it still synthetic?

ENEOS is top noth. It is the #1 oil in Japan and the oil Honda uses in its F1 cars. The majority of their oil is fully synthetic although the 5W-30 is not. I brought this oil in last month and I have recommended it to customers and promised them that if they didn't like it they could come back and I would sell them any other oil they want at cost. All have come back and told me how much they liked the oil. What's amazing too is the 0W-50, perfect for higher HP engines that need a thinner oil at startup and a better heat range when the oil gets hotter.

If you do need any I can ship it to you. Just let me know.

^^^Hows this stuff in comparison to Royal Purple and Amsoil?

I was told by the Manufacturer that the 0W30 is now standard in Honda and Toyota engines.

I don't believe Royal Purple is fully synthetic; it's a synthetic blend. AMSOIL though I am pretty certain is fully synthetic but I haven't sold much AMSOIL so I could be wrong.
