@lilpud1 Why 0w-50? Whats your specified weight? For instance, in the evo, the specified weight is 5w-30 from the factory and these dumbasses use 0w-50 because their 30 weight isn't actually a 30 weight and too damn thin. Have you looked at the Total Base-stock Numbers of their oil or any of their UOA's?
@hwhhww calls for 10-30, and thats just what i put in it. was doing a comparison on hp from different oils on a buddy's dyno. eneos 0w-50 add 15 extra whp... pour in hp.. we did 8 back to back pulls and the numbers never dropped due to heat. so after that, been buying it ever since. im running the new eneos sustina 0w-50 (about $88 for a case of 6) still couldnt be happier
@lilpud1 Why not use their 10w-30 oil if thats what your engine calls for? It's still hard for me to believe that a THICKER oil frees up HP by reducing parasitic drag. Why they don't use 30 weight? Because it sheers down really quickly. its almost impossible to get 10 whp on a dyno just from a simple oil change. The oil you were using before must've been used low quality oil or you're just bullshitting about your dyno tests.
@hwhhww because their 10-30 isnt the same oil, like its a different base and the reg. eneos its like a synth blend..and their 0-50 and 0-50 sustina, dont sheer like most other oils. yea i wouldnt believe someone would pick up 10 or even 15 whp i would call them out. but since tests were done on my car infront of my own eyes plus have the dyno sheet. all i got to say is try it .. if you dont like it then w/e. but dont bash something you have never tried or did research on. its a great oil!!
trying to market this oil is a waste of time the company don't advertise. (2)
Old-school car fanatics and some uninformed mechanics will still tell you that you HAVE to religiously change your oil every 3K miles in order to avoid catastrophic engine failures. this oil can't make the grade in EVO'S OR SUBARU IT WILL SPIN your BEARING..
Supposedly the top HP run was finessing through first few gears then using a higher gear to push hard. So top torque was not recorded at the lower gear.
This is impressive. Now I have for example a 2008 Honda Accord V6. The Manufactor recommend 5W-20 or 0W-20. My choice is to go with the 0W-20. Now by switching to 0W-40 or 50 will this make my engine wear out faster and reduce the MPG by switching to this oil weigh? How often do I need to change my oil? I know that Royal Purple make about the same HP gain, but they have a 0W-20,0W-30, 5W-20, 5W-30, and so on. I've been using 5W-20 on my 1994 Honda Civic. Engine been running great, MPG is good.
this shit is bad for your car, dont run it

Don't you realise with Eneos there was a terrible drop in Torque?

ahh, they poured castrol systec for first run, let hope it's not the famous german castrol (GC)

What happen to the torque??
murcielagojdm 2 years ago
because the oil weight is 5w50 duh, eneos has 5w30 to catch up the torque

bongborin, I would stick to the 20 weight for your 08 Accord
0W-20 ENEOS will give you maximum MPGs

Thank you. I will follow the manufactor recommended weigh.
They want 5W-20 or 0W-20. I'm thinking about AMSOIL

u want to be using a good Synthetic 5W-30.
-20 is just too thin. Your engine will wear out quicker. And with a -40 or -50 you will be losing power and fuel economy.
