Really? That's interesting. If you went with a thinner oil that would lower your pressure even lower then 70psi leaving the pressure lower then spec, no?
On a separate note, not to thread jack too badly, but has the 1 been reliable for you guys? The Berk 135i seems to be one of the most intensely driven 1's out there and I plan on moving into a 1 that I will be driving pretty aggressively as well. I just want to know given proper maintenance and aggressive driving if it is a reliable ride all around or not.
