    If you remap the ECU then confirm can use RON 95.

    Yes, unless the remap was done badly.

    Like what Ixeo said - if the car was remapped or tuned for 95 then yes. Otherwise prepare to pay for 97.

    You don't need 0w, as this is for winter use. Any good branded 5w40 FS oil will do......

    Remap ecu is possible, im not sure what are airtrek ecu code, but you can confirm with the tuner beforehand.

    I remap my stock evo3 ecu + replace the chip + dyno tune (mainline dyno) about rm7xx. Launch control additional rm50 with wiring.

    btw, your aitrek is fwd or awd?

    arent airtrek 4g63t engine...4 liter should suffice if there is no engine oil cooler.

    Airtrek turbo can use ron95 from factory as it was tuned to run on ron95. stock map are running on much rich side to protect fuel starvation or overboost. so a lot of my airtrek friends do reflash tune to run more efficient FC and more power (on demand). there are few names of reflash tuner for airtrek/evo. where do u live?

    airtrek turbo needs 4.5L (approx.) for engine oil and recommend to use 40 series viscosity or higher as per mileage increase. and yes airtrek turbo are also 4G63 turbo which the engine taken from Evo 5 and gearbox from evo 7.5 gta while turbo is a TD04HL shares with RVR 2nd gen. running on 450cc injector (high impedance) and a very2 mild (lemau) camshaft duration/lift. stock boost should be around 0.6~0.7 bar and should should run healthy 1 bar with or without ecu tuning.
