Default nanodrive oil

Anybody using this? I've had a good read up on the net and it seems worth a go.

I'm using it. Most of the claims are boll0cks but I got it cheap.

It doesn;t give power gains, no matter how many magazines claim differently

Not any more so than any of the other oils around the same price.

The oils that are worth looking at are poly ol ester based. As they do not crack inside turbos and cling to the metal better.

So you've tested it then? What did you test it against?

Yes I have. It was tested against 2k old quantum 0w-30 (i think, cant remember as it was 2k ago) and brand new millers cfs 5-40 and filter. 9 dyno runs in total, 3 of each ad there was no appreciable difference between the 3.

I know you've tested it, fancy telling me how you think it made the power when you tested it?
