R-comps are the next best thing to the driver mod.
Changed the oil today and put in 5w50 for the first time. Anyone think it can last to 8000 kms without shearing past 5w30 weight? lol.
It could, but what brand of oil are you using?
was that the oil on your MS3 or on your bike?Quote:

Is there any other benefit to replacing internals only?
Please pardon the ignorance
thank you
the cp-e pumps use the stock core so they are identical. Only thing is there is a cp-e sticker on it which you could take off.Quote:

Either way for $25 we can have the oil tested for you before you drain it out to see for sure.
That would actually be interesting to see. If it holds up then it may be worth it to keep using their 5w50 and do changes at 8000 kms rather than at 5000. It's not like I have a mod heavy car, either. Just FMIC and SF intake.
How would I get the oil sample from my car and who would I give it plus the cash to? I'm going to Montreal next week end then again for the April long week end so 5000 kms will probably add up fast.
Thanks for the infoQuote:

Alrighty, thanks.
I'm still working thru the i-tis from a heavy breakfast...and it's not even lunch yet.
I want to go for a drive...
Same. I have an itch to scratch now that my car is running perfect.
I really need to get some work done...
That itch is called crabs. You should really start wearing "armour"Quote:

Was out for a bit before lunch. Road started drying out, windows down, soooo nice.
Seems like you're speaking from experience. Next time I feel like I have something flaring up, I'll text you photos so you can diagnose me. :chuckleQuote:
