I havent tried that stuff in particular but I have tried 'slick 50' & I do really recommend it! You have to wait at least 50k though I think otherwise your engine never beds in properly....it is good stuff it coats all the internals with 'teflon' like on frying pans so you get a 'non stick engine!' It gives an increase in bhp too...I rate it! Anybody else??

But have you heard the tale where putting fully synthetic makes your engine leak oil as it is supposed to be thinner LOL
