Ken4555 1st Gear April 9, 2011 Share April 9, 2011 (edited) Since i got my present car, i have been very skeptical about oil additives... most just thicken your engine oil... as for engine treatments additives, i fear the stuff clogging the oil filters, or hardening over time to baked on carbon... or simply too many negetive effects... anyways read somewhere that molybdenum is used in F1 racing... one of the few additives which do work without much side effects... i hope ... did some light research and realised its found in 3products i have heard about... 1) Mugen MT105... i 1st saw this product in Penang... but didnt get it then... cant remember price n size too long ago... Reviews: http://www.inlinefour.com/mugmtentreat.html http://www.preludeonline.com/f28/mugen-mt-...reatment-25351/ 2) ProStaff Super Rikitaro Oil (tink its 250ml) 1st saw this in NTUC n Autobacs offer $19.90... now retails @ $29.90 or more... 3) BullsOne (Korean brand (wat a name like bullsh1t ) ... if you frequent AutoBacs u will surely know this brand... many many different products) engine treatment $15 for 500ml the oil additive comes in 500ml cans... i used 500ml as my Engine oil when i did an oil change and i must say the results are stunning... instant engine quieter... smoother.... even after hard driving my engine still was quiet and smooth... yes some of you might say of course new oil mah... yes but it was used with x-gold 5w/40 the cheaper grade... and i have changed these grades of Engine oils be4 and engine engine not as smooth... but with this additive the oil felt immediately like redline ester based (which is slightly thicker then other oils with the same vicosity)... and think i might have overdosed hope all will be ok... my 1st tank with it and i got 50+km more same driving style... infact i 'whacked' more this tank.... infact i tried Schaeffer MolyEP Oil Treatment before and didnt get these effects like Bullsone... but then maybe cause i used it with redline anyways i think this is worth a try... anyone with similar experiences with Korean products?.... also recently i got this korean made headlamp bulb and T10 pole light... the pole light is like PIAA standard at a fraction of the cost.... the headlamp bulbs much better than China quality and looks just as good at those german made philips.... just as bright as philips... life span i dont know lah... but Philips ($85)... Korean brand ($16)... i can change 5times+.... even if the philips can outlast the korean brand 5times, which is unlikely, the philips would hv been damn worn out by then...

SimonTan 2nd Gear April 10, 2011 Share April 10, 2011 (edited) Impressed. The prelude online discussed this mugan brand in year 2001. And this product is still selling in 2011! I am sure for a product to exist for more than 10 years, there must be some truth in it. I am sold! Now, where can I get this Mugan power for my Honda Jazz. Would like to try this proven product.

Kb27 Supersonic April 10, 2011 Share April 10, 2011 Schaeffer molyEP is actually antimony, not moly. Not sure why they label it like that. Schaeffer Supreme oil itself contains lots of moly. Another one is LiquiMoly moly additive. http://www.liqui-moly.de/liquimoly/produkt...ent&land=DE Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would like to try this proven product. the last i saw i think was at the infamous SUNG BENG... also not too sure but i think i saw at autobacs and remember was VERY expensive..... i think you can check with the company that imports Mugen Engine oil and racing parts to SG... saw some of their ads in Hot Stuff before...

There are 2 types of moly. MoS2 which is non-soluble and the other is soluble moly found in Schaeffer and Redline. Some people tried in BITOG and they say the LiquiMoly MoS2 is also good. I tried it in my diesel van, but found not much difference. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mona-vie 1st Gear April 10, 2011 Share April 10, 2011 Yes, MoS2 is know to work and has been in the market for a very very long time already. Btw, its also inside your engine oil. Just that its in very small amts compared to the additives. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mona-vie 1st Gear April 10, 2011 Share April 10, 2011 any idea where to buy the CeraTec? Forget about Ceratec. I have tried it. Nothing fantastic for its price. If you want a better additive at the same price, get the Novasyn one. thats one confirm work better. I have tried it personally and using it now for my engine and gearbox.
