yes i know in the states is the favorite oil for many racing teams, but here in greece, i've heard different opinions.
is the "MPZ additive" so good?

eneos for me sucked !!!! i use 10-40 synthetic and it just keep burning them i have run 3700 klm and i have rfilled 2.9l no problem with stem vavles but i suppose it oils cant support my engine so i ll use some motul v300 together with an oil booster to see some results , also 1 guy told me that he used some motor flush cz he had the same problem but i dont know about that !!!!

Is this the first oil you have been using in this engine? Any experience with other oils? Maybe the oil consumption isn't due to the oil, as this consumption is too much.

as i asked 1 more person that had the same problem with me he is using motul v300 now and he is ok he used also 1 motor flush before install new oils and he is good so i dont guess that is every1 that says i need rebuild , the stem vavles of honda last 300k klm and mine got only 100k so as per my mechanic says the last years eneos got sucky and i have heard that opinion from many ppl , since they stopped writing on the box made in japan specifically !!!! also i heard many ppl swapping to motul that are the best oils they ever used !!!! gonna try them tomorrow
