That's the first time i've heard one of these being used on a starlet. I suppose it's not just bolt on ud need a mani / doenpipe to suit. What kind of results are people getting from these, are they responsive like a ct9?

Mate check the link, all the answers are there.

I was running a Hybrid with all supporting mods. Ran GTX castrol 10W-40 stuff and my bottom end went at knockhill. The oil just evaporated.

Running Silkolene Pro S now and done 2 trackdays since and had no problems. I won't use anything else from now on. You engine will be working hard at 200bhp so it's really not worth the risk to use anything other than fully synthetic. Well I don't think so.

I use Millars semi 10-40, never had any problems, but might go up to fully synthetic on my next oil change.

running anything over stock power its best to have an oil cooler too. oil temps skyrocket with turbo cars when they get sustained hard driving
