Teflon has been known to be BAD for a long time, too bad most people don't see these articles and instead see the crap ads for the product. There are a few additives that are good, but like the article says, most of them are already in your oil, just change it to keep the protection up. Motorcycles are pretty sensative to oil, turbo cars are even more so, especially with turbos where the oil is the bearings in the turbo (like ours). Could you imagine getting sludge in there from an additive? Good way to kill a turbo...
