Noticed in Ricerbarn yeterday that Mobil 1 is now available in 5W30 (Focus LR spec. Possibly later Focus' as well).
Mobil 1 in 5W30 has not previously been available in Australia. IMHO Mobil 1 remains the best quality mainstream oil you can get.(Have previously worked for 2 oil companies). Yes it is pricey.....but will cost you less than a tank full of petrol....cheap protection in my book. (ps. My Ford Racing cylinder head is currently winging its way to Oz!!!New head, camshafts, and compression, coming soon  : )

Hoping for 96kw Adam, but with good torque throughout the rev range

It'd be interesting to see how much quicker the Focus will be with these latest enhancements is around Oran Park? They timed your hot laps didn't they?
