I'm just making sure that RP oil doesn't have a long change interval like 12k. ________________________________________ Ex SC-6Now in a Megane R26 |

I'm just making sure that RP oil doesn't have a long change interval like 12k. Being fully synthetic it probably does have some silly interval like 15k or possibly even more, but I wouldn't take the risk what with the extra stress the engine is being put under, for the sake of a few quids worth of oil. All imo of course. I dont actually run RP oil in my car, but I run Millers CFS competition fully synthetic 10w60 in my car, as does Ash in his cars and its plenty good enough, next best thing to Royal Purple I would say, and its about half the price (£50 for 5L) ________________________________________ Long live the Sigma 6 Team Phase 1 supercharged XBL ID: farmer uk1 |

Yes, essentially in order to make an engine run as sweetly as possible you need every factor to be correct all of the time. If you have an engine with perfect valve timing, ignition timing, fresh high grade fuel and plenty of air available but the plugs are too cold it won't all work great because one link of the chain isn't doing what it should be in relation to the rest of the system.  ________________________________________ "Supercharged - 454.1bhp/317.5lb/ft"Peugeot 306 GTi-6 2000 (X), Moonstone |

Standard parts for the 6 engine arnt bad, it does seem like alot of people try playing with plugs air filters and exhausts when really everything that pug put on the car as standard are very good. The standard 2.0 n/a engine producing 167 bhp is very good i think. Most hatches today dont produce that apart from a honda n/a________________________________________ cherry p1.....SOLD (regreting this)blaze p2.....why did i buy this SOLD Black p3 |
