Using trust 10w40 re spec. 2k km also never needed to add oil (and the oil is clean). I think the carbon thing was build up during I drove the car to sunway after blown. But not too sure. I think I ain't gonna rebuild. Most likely buy a complete new engine. Cuz the block also got a bit bent. Cost for all parts almost the same, may as well once and for all. If anyone knows there is a place can rebuild this condition of engine for less than RM10k, kindly please let me know.

. But will watch out the red line and maybe try the fuel premix deal. Really wanna know the root cause of the thick carbon. And don't know if add those fuel additive (cleaner) will spoil the seals or not.

How good is the engine really depends on how engine was run in..... This was told by RX7 owners....... Did Autoexe say wat particular apex seal are they gonna used??? So far i haven't found any strenghten aftermarket apex seal.....
But if you still drive the way you are, i don't see it go pass 20,000km.......

This lesson not cheap. Sure I'll drive less aggresive :D . Don't know what they are going to use. Most probably original. If race prepare sure will cost at lease 10x of the current price on the engine alone.

3. oil light came on yesterday checked oil and it was kinda milky. (maybe from cold cold illinois winter?)
4.i noticed oil under my air box when I was in there.
