I am switching from Motul to Valvoline with the plan flush before each event. I recall that a good number of folks run SynPower. Just curious if this will be a mistake.

I've run Motul since 2002 with no issues. I can't comment directly on the Valvoline...

... except to say that I know more than a few people who run it without issue.

I stick with the Motul because I run a pretty aggressive pad and tend to brake a little aggressively. For a few extra dollars I figure what the hell. I don't know if it really is that much better.....

I'm all for flushing brake systems too but realistically a flush per event seems to be overkill. Did you get a powerbleeder for Christmas or something? ;-)

I've been using Valvoline for at least 3-4 seasons and never had a boil.

No power bleeder, but I can cycle the ABS pump with a VAG.

Motul. Some things you do not skimp on. ATE Super Blue is good too.
