Default My most expensive oil change ever



Since it feels pretty much the same as other oils I've used, I dont think I'll spend $25/L again lol

hmm
what did you expect?

add 25 whp ?

one mugen engineer told me that it adds very high bling factor to the crank. and it also chromes the whole interieur of the engine. so perhaps on the next bling bling meeting, take a saw and "open" your engine, so that everybody sees that nice effect.
true or lie?

haha

$25 a litre isn't even close to the most expensive oil.

Ahh well, I was just gonna try it out this one time haha

I live in HK by the way, so 5W-40 isn't that crazy, I used 0W b4.

Oil is super expensive in HK. Even Mobil 1 costs $12/L.

Same goes for tires, good thing payday is coming up, cuz my RE-01s are super worn out.

They can't get it there. It's about 10 Euro/L in Europe.

Tell me about it, I used this Mugen oil once and my engine starts to eat oil.
Coincidence? i think not, 4 other Dc2/prelude owners have the same thing happens to them.
IMO, there are other better alternative for $25/L motor oil!
