6l of oil?? Its only 4.5 u need unless it has a aftermarket large oil cooler. Never used carlube oil, just make sure its fully synthetic and you will be fine.

Opie had a deal on, 5ltr of fuchs Titan race pro-s, £49 delivered inc 1ltr free = 6ltr, as said 5ltrs will be sufficient for an oil change though, BTW opie do a k&n oil filter too.

Over the last 3 years, I've always used halfords trackday oil 5w 50 and never had an issue.

What oil filter would you recommend for a 2000 turbo classic?
