same here.. I started using it because my local P-shop recommended it.
Jfrahm - with that kind of logic, you could say that anyone driving a Porsche on the street needs to stop breaking the speed limit..
As I mentioned yesterday, I finally got around to bleeding my clutch and took it for a spin today. After a good 20 minutes of driving, the pedal is still smooth as silk, and it appears my "notchy" pedal feel has disappeared. Looks like I just saved myself 3 days of work and $1000 worth of parts!

No I just think that the extra high boiling point of Super Blue is not needed on the street, I cannot imagine hitting that temp unless you badly mismanage the brakes. Valvoline Synthetic or Castol LMA is fine for street cars, much cheaper too.

I've used ATE for about 7 years myself with no problems. In vw's and my 944.
