amsoil fluids
 
So i plan on tracking the car very soon if everything goes well. I get amsoil oils at whole sale price, saving me some on money. At the moment I'm using all motul fluids in the car and want something comparable, any help would be appreciated. Thank you.

Amsoil,,ehh, quite the marketing sales gimmick going on, that's what turns me off...im with redline now..good luck so far.

They market REALLY hard...

IF I were to run it, I'd run their full synthetic that's rated for 25k miles and I'd still replace it at 5k miles...

Someone ran that oil to 7-10k miles and the oil results weren't great. The oil still passed spec, but there was excess metal wear


THAT BEING SAID, it was 1 test, maybe that guy's motor is on the way out anyways
