    Faisal- Never heard of it until I googled it. No 5W-40 or 0W-40 synthetic I can see, and that is what Ferrari recommends. Certainly would not put it in my Ferrari until I knew a whole lot more about it. The 5W-60 sounds interesting, but same story.

    And I use Valvoline fullly synthetic 5W-40. Widely available, has done great in comparison tests, and has a Ferrari recommended viscosity. No foaming like the Shell Ultra Helix, either.
