anyone ever use this oil, looks to be pretty good and fcpeuro just started carrying this as 40$ for 5L and free shipping over 49$. would be going in a twin turbo bmw n54 highly modified which sees about 10 track days a year. i have been using castrol 0w40 from walmart and have been pretty happy. just sent a sample to blackstone. this car will be more of a weekend car now that i have a work truck and daily toyota corrola to drive during the winter. i found this online for a data sheet

and this for a uoa from a european user


just looking to see if anyone here has any info or opinions on this oil. thanks
 
It is OK oil. Stick to Castrol 0W40, it is better! Just because oil is made in Germany does not mean it is best thing after sliced bread. Sites like fcpeuro carry these oils because they get them cheap and people fall for it because it is German oil.
 
Rowe makes quality products. I’m sure it’s good oil. However, whether or not it’s any better than Castrol 0W-40 (also a PAO oil), is anyone’s guess. Castrol is half the price right now at WM, and it’s a tried and true oil with the analyses to back it up.
