Originally Posted By: d00df00d Let's take a step back even further: Why do you want any oil other than the factory oil? No oil will give you any more than slight gains here and there. If that's not convincing for you, stick with what Lamborghini recommends. Honestly, I was googling...

what are the advantages for running a thinner oil? fuel economy? the car is rated at 9mpg city, so i dont think it matters much to me. hp? again, if i was beating on the car and wanted every last hp, i think i would be concerned about the oil temps and want a thicker oil. less wear on...

yup, as photogrpahy is also a hobby of mine, i got no shortage of pics... this was taken in my driveway: engine: we were changing the exhaust: new exhaust: the interior is pretty boring looking. i'll have to search for pics.

this is what the manual says: Agip SINT 2000 Evolution or Agip TECSINT/TECSINT SL SAE 5W/40 API-SJ/CF Or driving the car at highest performances or high ambient temperatures requires the use of Agip Racing 4T 20W/50
