hey 99nos, be nice, hes a newbie. The oil will give your engine better protection against thermal breakdown. I heard some really good news from the oil and protectant. Negative, is that you will have to use the oil constantly. A buddy of mine tried the oil and his car ran great. After he changed the oil with some generic oil, he car went down hill, seals etc went bad. There is a relation with synthetic and oil stuff. Try to stick to one type so less problem. I m going to running Castro syntec in my vehicle. good luck! welcome to the org.

Posts in the test forum do not count towards your post count.
And as for motor oil adding HP ... hmmmm ... extremely highly doubt it. Probably adds HP like the Tornado Air adds HP.
