$40/gallon....that is so expensive

A case of idemitsu premix is about $70 from mazdatrix and its a 12 quart/3 gallon case.
Anything is good as long as its tcw-3 certified for being ashless.

i've used this shit for 70k miles on my own car since i run so many miles on it.

unless you're on the track i see no point in spending $10 plus for a quart of oil for simple internal lubrication purposes.

it also has over twice the factory horsepower, so i guess it works just fine.

What that page really says is that PREMIXING will extend engine life over the stock oil splugers.

For me abuse / experience says as long as its tcw3 it will do a better job than the oil drippers.

If you like blowing money, go for it, Im sure its good if Pettit says so.

Sweet so this stuff works? Im going to have to go get some, I have a question for this how much oil do you actually add to the gas? oh and how big is the gas tank on the turbo2?

RotaryEvolution 09-19-12 12:03 PM

1oz per gallon if no OMP, .5oz per gallon if the OMP is still working and on the engine.

series 4 is 16 gallons, series 5 is 18 gallons.

you will never fit that much into the tank though even if you drive it until the engine shuts off. i think i managed to get just over 15 gallons into my S4 once.

sweet, Ive heard that alot of people premix just to have piece of mind knowing that the engine is getting the oil it needs. How will this effect the emissions? I saw on atkins rotary(I think...?) sells this premix and it says helps reduce emissions? Is that correct?
