This oil was recommended by a very good Indy shop that I've been using.
Has anyone else used this oil and if so, thoughts on it? |

I have been using this for 3 years and 8 oil changes. My mechanic is an engineer and former Ferrari crew chief and he recommended it. If you read the technical testing it appears that this oil is much less likely to break down during track use.

The n55 and S55 can use any LL01 approved oil so: 0w30, 5w30, 0w40, and 5w40 are all acceptable. Quote:
I know ams oil has some good stuff in their euro 5w40 and redline has some group 3/group 4 mixed oils that are LL01 but not fully a group 4.

With any ll01 approved oil he answer should be yes, hence why it's ll01.
