Motul 300v 5w-40: Cheapest place to buy?

shit's expensive... $30-35 for 2 liters. I can only find them in packs of two, so i'm stuck buying 4 packs to get 7 quarts ($120-140)

anyone use this oil know where i can get the best price? maybe free shipping at least?

thanks guys

That's kinda crazy how oil can allow your vehicle to produce more power than lets say a small bolt-on on our cars lol

haha that's great, but i'm not expecting any gains.

although i did have a change of heart and ended up ordering RLI Biosyn 5w-40. seems it is more suitable for cars with heavy fuel dilution (like ours). it was originally formulated for the rs4. pretty interesting stuff. very solid performer judging from everything i have read.

it is in the same price range as 300v too.

Eitherway I'm sure its a good oil.

I think I can actually get this oil at a discount. Let me look into it for you guys.

i've been using 300v racing for years. i don't notice hp gained
but i thing i do notice is letting your engine cooling very fast after hard pulls which is good for turbo cars

5252 Motorsports does my oil changes and I get motul 5w-40(for race or heavy duty use)..I pay $150 tax included for oil, filter and labour. He gets the oil from a local auto supplier called BJ autoparts. So there has to be some1 selling this oil in USA for cheaper
