Re: Blue DX D16A9
All very nice in my experience the d16a9 hates Mobil 1 new life 0w40 though,,
Mine used to burn the oil off very quickly and noticeable smoke out the exhaust. Drained it out and put Mobil 1 super s 10w40 in and all was ok again.
Love your 4th gen very much though and easily in my top 5

D16a9 Powered dream machine!
No greater fun then backing off the throttle at 7400rpm and spraying fire out the exhaust
