dear all, be careful of "superman brand" or any "rabbits brand". better to use "trusted brand". at least we are ensure of its quality. Unless u know the source - eg. some OEM doing bottling for other brands and "by-pass" some to do their own branding. Or some didn't pass the QC, but still can use, so sell cheap lor to get rid of the stock. In conclusion - "let the buyer beware". In other words - at your own risk.

Cerato v2 use hw many liters of eo? 3 full quarts just nice at about half mark. if u follow the manual it will be really full. risk of topping too much. i think manual states 3.5L but dont exceed 3.3L

i think US quart.... 0.9+++ L.
3 quart is close to 3L.
3.3L is quite full already.

I guess other budget EO e.g. CarLube, Sheaffer (wonder did I spell wrongly) and etc should be a better choice of EO than "77"? "77" container seemed like some big soy sauce bottle. Personally felt lose in appetite in such an EO......... Guess I am just judging the book by it's cover... lol....

I agree with themostextreme regarding the creditibilty of some EO.
I went to source for Basso which claimed to be made in Jap....all over the net...Sing website selling and packaging dun look convincing le....
Sticking to Amsoil Sig or Bizol...

U may not know the brand here but overseas it MAY be popular. Have u heard of ENOC brand name etc? Here like nobody knows. Overseas they use on those high end cars...

As long as it is syn, API SM compliant. Then no problem. I usually stock up 1 or 2 bottle. The cheapest I ever bought recently, 5W30 xGold for $28.99. So cheap. Into 12kkm, the oil consumption is fantastic !!! Now selling 38.99 at Giant. So stock up 1,2 bottle if you ever see a good deal. I guess other budget EO e.g. CarLube, Sheaffer (wonder did I spell wrongly) and etc should be a better choice of EO than "77"? "77" container seemed like some big soy sauce bottle.

I still left with 1 litre. I used 5w40 and my returns was 11 -12.8km/l in V1 HB 16" with bodykit.

Try 5W30 next time, can improve FC by about 30km per tank.... As long as it is syn, API SM compliant. Then no problem. I usually stock up 1 or 2 bottle.
