Question on oil.

#1 Post by stig » Thu Jan 26, 2012 2:42 pm

Prompt who uses additives in oil for the best work of the engine on NOS
Or is better it is not necessary to apply additives?
And as, what oils use? Also that you can tell about oil Bardahl

I apologize for my English. :oops:

Whether it would be desirable to learn friends you use in alcohol motors what or additives or additives in oil.

I have had good results with Brad Penn (20w-50) and Joe Gibbs (XP1) oil. I don't use any extra additives. What fuel are you using?

In last season we used М3 and oil (15w-50) the engine dohs an injector.
Valvoline we don't trust, at us on sale it is a lot of fake.
We use Motul at the checked up dealers.
There was new oil Bardahi that will tell who uses?

Now there is time what to communicate and learn on more. Thanks for answers.

Winter season and temperature-15С we gather for races on an autocross.

I switched to Brad Penn last year. It came highly recommended by a few guys I trust. I haven't had the engine apart to check the bearings yet.

My engine guy swears by Brad Penn oil and is even a dealer for them.

The price seems to be very compatiable with other brands.

I'd like to know what makes it so special?
