Hi guys

What oil would you recomend for a 93 leggy turbo with 190k on the clock, full exhaust de-cat(twin dump downp), scoobyecu & dawes, blitz air cone, TD05, heavy right foot and loud tappits!

Thanks

I went out a drank 86 pints of stella last night, didn't go to the bog once.
Woke up and pi$$ed in the engine this morning, tappits still a bit loud so poured lots of sand and pva glue in. Works a treat

My Impreza now with 134k was noisy.. Mobil 1 15w50 quietened it slightly.. just tried Motul 300v Comp 15W50 and it is perfect again.. no real tappet noise anymore..

Demon Tweaks mail order it next day.

Either DT or Scoobymania.

Scoobymania used to (3 months ago) do an oil changing kit, 5lt of motul(4lt+1lt) and a genuine subaru filter delivered for £50.
