September 24, 200620 yr Edge 0W-40, why yes I do. Only went full synth once the rings were fully bedded in, engine run in etc (was 7,500kms for me, after changing oil with Mobil semi synth at 3,000kms). I also use Nulon E20 - always will.
September 24, 200620 yr I'm running Edge 0w40 in my T, went for the 0w40 over the 10w60 as I didn't want to go heavier than a 40 weight in a stock motor. I also e-mailed castrol and asked them which one they recomended for a stock T and they said the 0w40.
September 24, 200620 yr Thanks guys as my T is stock at the moment aswell but gonig to get edit and custom tune very soon would it be wiser to get 10w60 isntead of 0w40
September 24, 200620 yr Also how do you find 0w40 notice any differnece comapred to other oil brands eg Shell, Mobile etc etclike is the Castrol Edge Smoother and responive etc etc?
September 24, 200620 yr Certainly some guys here use the 10W-60. I'm running anywhere from stock power to somewhere in the order of ~290rwkw give or take, and still use Edge 0W-40.That DRIF6 car that FPV used to belt around the track used Edge 0W-40 too, so I'd expect it to be pretty bullet proof. You also have to think of the turbo too, and the protection you need for the bearings (part of the reason why I use Nulon E20 additive - always will heh ).
September 24, 200620 yr I'd be happy to stick with the 0w40 but if your getting a custom tune I'd put in whatever your tunner recomends. As far as any difference in the car being smoother or more responsive, no you can't notice any difference. You could proably put home brand in it and not notice any differnce.
September 24, 200620 yr I think I give some of this Castrol Edge 0w40 a try or someof Nulon E20 additive stuff we see how it goes.
