QUOTE(pumpman @ May 26 2014, 03:56 PM) Sorry i cannot agree with TBN 8-13 as API guidelines is between 6.1 to 8.3 http://www.pqiamerica.com/March2013PCMO/lucassynth.htm. I personally agree Racing oil is not govern by API that is my personal take for extended OCI (which i am practicing now) so the more the better no? when everyone is proud to "exceed API specifications" while still being API SN/GF 5 certified. it kinda makes one wonder if API's standards are strict enough  we'll know by 2015/2016 with the new SO (or SP, considering SO sounds weird  specifications, along with honda pushing for official SAW 0w16 viscosity) specs anyways forgotten to post this: https://plus.google.com/+JasonLimQuazacolt/posts/DzSwSWnqNaL package from Blackstone laboratories arrived... just waiting for 3k km more till my OCI so i can collect used oil samples to send over

We have oil lab here in Malaysia too.. This post has been edited by pumpman: May 26 2014, 04:09 PM

We have oil lab here in Malaysia too.. oh believe me i've contacted like 5-6 labs in malaysia, feedback (or the lack of it) have been very poor or the pricing are absurd. 25 usd is a small price to pay for a service highly revered by BITOG  =edit= speaking of ACEA, that's also why i switched out from the german Liqui moly because i cannot find their directory listing of certified products This post has been edited by Quazacolt: May 26 2014, 04:11 PM
