I have been using the last two years Motul 300V for my engine and had no problems up to now, but i decided to change brand. i took this decision because i found out that Motul 300V leaves a lot of debris on the engine parts. So I was thinking of Torco SR-1 or Amsoil. Has anyone tried them before? any good reviews?

Millers NT stuff here. Used to use Fuchs/Silkolene before that, never found anything wrong with it but the Miller's stuff is well proven in Toyota engines in motorsport.

Amsoil is sold via clever internet adverts and self made reviews sites. There are a lot of people fished in with this particular oil, claims of 20K between changes etc, there is not one official unsponsored scientific test that it is better then anything else. There is a HUGE amount of info on this oil on the net.

For me Mobil 1 is the best, if its good enough for Aston Martin & McLaren road cars then I think its OK for me.
