The problem with Coolpower is it does not mix with other oils and can (and does) cause problems unless you properly clean it out.

In the past Coolpower used to run a Green oil that was thought to be slightly better for endurance (against the Extreme that was super thin). I have not seen it for a while to be fair but someone might still have a bottle or 2 on the back of a shelf if you ask around.

I don't think it is the oil thickness that is the critical factor but rather how long the molecules hold their length. When sprinting we used to change the oil after every meeting while the Joe Gibbs we currently use it is every 10 hours or so.
