OK. I have a room at the Willow, but I will cancel that if it isn't needed. Niki will be coming with me, so it might be a good idea to keep it if there are more than 4 of use sharing the room.

I use it in my M/C too (0.5 oz per 5 gal. tank), and I've been told if you add 1 to 2 oz. to radiator coolant it adds life to the water pump and cools the engine some (I'll let you know when it gets hotter, as I already did this), Next, I may add it to the oil because it makes it flow better. It is a fuel/oil/coolant soluable ester-based add-in.

Pricing is at http://www.ethosfr.com/OnlineStore.html

Enjoy yours, SWEET it is.
BTW, 09, they laughed at me when I told them about the "too loud" issue, until I explained the under - over 3750 RPM issue.
They then smirked with HUGE SMILES, and told me to stop driving at "those" speeds.

It sounds so awesome! My children were skeptical when I told them I had ordered it, but when they heard it yesterday.............. Well, they knew that Mom knows best now! LOL LOL LOL
I've been driving around with the windows down in this heat!! And no stereo!
I am pleased.
