Default Activ 8 universal friction reducer

any1 used / using this?

I was recommended it by a friend of a friend that uses it in his M6 BMW and also did all the companies filming.


Activ8 Friction Reducer - Engine and Gearbox Oil Additive - Increase Engine Performance Power and Economy - Reduce Wear in Engines and Gearboxes - Suitable for Cars - Motobikes - Lorry Engines and Gearboxes has many Mechanical Uses


I have a litre bottle of it and was thinking of giving it to the Subaru garage to put in my 07 STI as its first service is 2moro.



just wondered if any SN'ers have seen / used it?

DON'T put any such thing in such a new engine. If it does what it claims (?) it'll stop your engine from running in properly.
I don't know this product although I've seen it sold at shows, so make sure it's not a "particle" type additive. If it's not then save it for the year service, I doubt if it will do any harm although most people would not recommend additives.
