If engine oils are all the same, then no harm trying it for a better butt feel - since I do not have charts nor figures to show how the flesh on my kar chng felt better.

If engine oils are not the same.........

BTW, I am not related to Rodney nor UM2. No vested interest, just in case suspicion arises.

Bro, there is no need for 60Wt. Torco Oil has got a higher shear factor than normal oils.
50Wt is already considered quite thick.

You hit the spot right there kenn. I would think that oil are just...oil. For any kind of normal driving and even spirited ones, what's the big deal if the cost are not ridiculously high? Considering how much mileage and maintenance we put into the cars, esp in Sg, most cars would do fine even with regular oils.

In fact, i am confident you will be converted to TORCO, if you willing to pour it into your engine.

Motul will only be a website by then.

Re: Torco Oil

Let's not play the "my oil is better than your oil" thingy.

Some inputs are very subjective as gains are not quantified over a dyno and studied over a period of time.

Suffice to say, UM2 had access to the only rolling road chassis dyno in singapore a long time ago and there were consistent results.

Anyway, Jinooi...i've got your missing fasteners already, drop by when you are free.....another "liberated" customer...
Cheers
