To all, This is a post to review X-Gold engine oil. The review is based on driver feedback. To give some background information, 5 Koups were identified to have X-Gold Engine oil pour into the engine for review. Of the 5 Koups, 3 went to Sepang on the 15-Oct for track day: Myself, Lao Beng & Ben85. Our moderator, N2N, has X-Gold oil for his next service, while Charles was the 5th car to have X-Gold poured in for review. Guys. Pls come in to review the product as per our commitment to our sponsor. Thanks Special Thanks to Mr Jeffery of Gold International Pte Ltd for sponsoring X-Gold Engine Oil and Boaster for our day of fun in Sepang on the 15-Oct. www.goldintl.com.sg/The following are pictures & video taken on the 14-Oct when the X-Gold engine oil arrived for our Koups.

After using the X-Gold Engine oil is good as the fuel consumption is lower.
Engine is quiet even when is in the high rev it still quiet.
The Oil does not easy turn black after I had went to track race.
Like Shell oil that change from Agent once it reach 5,000km the oil start to turn black and engine start to be noise.
Overall X-Gold Engine oil is very good engine oil.

Where can i get this X gold EO?? The engine oil is available in various shopping centers. How the distributor is willing to give us a special rate but there is a minimum qty to purchase. We dare not commit to him until we review the oil performance. Secondly also need to generate some interest as well.

I recently also change to X-Gold.. the engine is much quieter and rev still good...
In fact, it seems to be cleaning up the engine as well with the booster and restores some of the loss bhp/torque from mileage usage - note that I already hit pass 25k mileage.
Those interested in this EO should drop by the 6 Nov photoshoot cos the Vendor will be there to explain more and maybe you guys can discuss about the GB possibilities..

Today just bought the X-Gold booster for power at today's photoshoot for trying out its performance. After the 5mins of engine warm up, I tried the car's pick-up and found that its much more smoother and the pick-up is more power than before (my car is already fixed with light weight pulley and the booster still can pull out more smoothness and better pick-up). It's an item worth spending for this kind of luxury for me

yes, also bought and used it on the day of the photoshoot... at the start maybe u cannot feel the significant difference...
but after a few hours or so.. i can feel the power from the booster and the car overall is much smoother than before...
also noticed after 2 days... my FC improved... so i guess in the long-run buying this oil is actually saving more money than using CnC oil...

Still have to change the EO after 10k or 20k km. The booster is an additive to the EO.

Looking forward to it Glenn. would be attractive if we can skip CnC engine oil changing n do it @ preferred wkshp instead. If can divert cnc extra $ charge to other wkshp, why not. If this rd they can promo to previous giant selling price that would be nice=) Personally, waiting for fellow prize winners review so that with realistic exp, we can better generate interest for other koups. =) Will get the vendor to allow GB and maybe tied up with workshop for servicing packages... stay tuned.

Bro, can recommended which workshop will allow if I buy this EO & ask them to change? What is the estimated labour charge? I am currently servicing in A-Star which uses Fuch & I pour in the booster which I purchase from giant...S$78+36=$114. The EO is S$70. Yes it's true....after i pour in the booster acceleration is better & engine quiet.
