Ok, I am game to try this stuff.

I am about to change the engine oil on my '16 ND and I also will be installing the factory LSD. I also have the weak factory transmission. I will be starting to track it soon and I was just going to run the various Castrol fluids that the Global Cup Cars run.

Where are the instructions that show how much I should use for the engine? Should I use the straight 75w90 gear oil for the transmission and diff and nothing else?

The factory fill in NA is 0w20, but it is 0w30 in Europe and other markets. The Castrol I was going to use is 0w30. Should I run the factory 0W20 and just use the additive instead?

The only reasonable answer right now is "nobody knows", and the only reasonable action is to wait for empirical results.

Emilio, can you PM me about this stuff? I tried, but I don't get that option when I click on your name. I know you don't sell the stuff and I have already verified that it is in stock at my local Autozone, so I am ready to buy. I just want guidance either from you or Billy on what to use. Since the Skyactive gets its efficiency from running the minimum fluid possible and friction reduction, this stuff seems right up that alley. Plus, the GCC run coolers for everything, so the heat shedding ability would be very useful...

I don't use PM's on any forum. Anyway, I know about as much as you do right now so I probably wouldn't be of much help. Far from an expert on this stuff. Just sharing here to open a discussion.Our email is info@949racing.com
