My 2012 Shelby GT500

Well I just made my first payment, so I'm slow in deciding what direction to go. The car is very fast so I don't know that performance is needed yet, although Supersnake is not out of the question, I need to learn a few issues.

From what Ive been reading you need oil separators to keep oil out of the intake. During the process of venting crankcase pressure back through the intake track, large amounts of oil, in the form of vapors, can coat your blower rotors, intercooler fins and even dilute your gas, lowering its octane level. This happens on all engines and is even worse when supercharged as crankcase pressures are increased.

I still cant get a solid answer on this.

I also would like to improve on the suspension as well as better tires. These Goodyear Supercar F1's suck! I can barely get traction.

Id like to change the exhaust to give it some more sound but I don't want to gain drone. So I'm stuck.

I will own this car for awhile, so I'm not to pressured to do much right now.

Life has been good for me the past few months. I have no complaints. I just hope business stays good or I could lose one again! The great thing about credit is its always easy to get more.

Does anyone have access to Mobil 1 5/50 oil? For some reason in Arizona this oil isn't easily available. I have a friend looking into it for me that works at a dealership just thought I'd see if anyone else has access, and what the cost is. I understand this oil is only for the Dodge Viper, Ford GT40, and the GT500 and GT350 so it is why it is limited availability.
