I've been using this oil for about 2000km now. It feels smoother than what i was previously using, like motul 300v and Blitz turbo oil, but i think that is because it is also thinner. The engine revs more freely and feels more responsive.

I also did suffer turbo failure when running this oil, but i'm not sure if it was the turbo or the oil. I have a HKS Oil cooler kit and daily driving temps are at abt 80-82 degs celc. Outside air temps between 29-43 degs celc.
