How's the feeling of this addictive? Very expensive compared to the Tufoil I'm always using. Have you use Tufoil and Ceratec before? Can give comparison to both of these?

google tufoil and you can see a lot of negative feedback sad.gif

teflon based, the teflon would tend to "melt" and linger in your engine system sad.gif

ceratec used before, ceramic particle based, won't "melt" together. if it stops "sticking" to your engine parts it'll just follow engine oil out upon draining/OCI.

generally, i'd probably trust a big german lubricant company more than an american engine oil treatment company sweat.gif

I've used Ceratec on my Persona, it could have been not bad.

Then I've used Tufoil, and found that it's really effective in reducing tappet noise and giving smooth sleek feel to the rev. I've used 2-3 OCI on my Persona, on N/A and turbo. The engine looks good when they lift the head.

With caution, I've used half the recommended dosage on my Preve. So far no tappet noise yet despite WOT several times.

I'm sure some notices my car is quieter than ordinary Campro cars (before exhaust mod). That's because of Tufoil.

Helllo, anyone changed exhaust header before and encounter metal knocking sound?
Someone change to hotbits 421 header then if rev harder abit got metal knocking sound. Does it happen to everyone?

mengsuan thanks for the short teksi ride on your Preve LE tonite, very impressive car.

Don't mind the minor rattling, even Ford (including mine sleep.gif ) or VW also rattle.

If I change ride within this 2 years, the Preve with VT3+ will definitely be on the top of my list.

I'm glad that you enjoyed.
