He said the penz plat euro 5w40 was also API sp which has LSPI requirements. He didn’t think it met dexos1 gen2 because of viscosity. But the uoa still looks bad to me on bitog. It has similar zinc to rp but way higher calcium

after more research... it appears that guy likes a3/b4 because it has a min HTHS of 3.5, and he likes non-dino bases which is III+ or IV. so that's how he landed on PP euro 5w40 So my take is sure, high shear is good, but I'm only doing isolated 1-3rd gear rips. So LSPI protection will be of...

how do you even find the cP besides random googling? I found it on BITOG for the mobil 1 euro 5w40 but there was no source so I'm blindly trusting some guy is right. It ain't listed on the exxon site

I'm leaning towards staying with RP 5w30. It has a seemingly decent cP with the anti lspi stuff we were looking for, and it's not really that expensive and is available at any autopart store or walmart. But I will continue to search the "common" oils for something better

I'm gonna launch a PM and ask. He seems knowledgeable. And yes we are DI+PI but relatively low boost. So even when I stomp on it at 2-3k rpm I might make like 3 lbs, if that. But sounds like I should be looking for an oil that's D1G2 and high cP.

Ok so recap. Calcium <= 2000 AND Sodium <= 2000 With Molybdenum >= 500 OR ZDDP (zinc) >= 500 These additive specs listed on page 1 are still valid and good, and combining that with a higher HTHS would be ideal? Any guess why is ACEA A3/B4 so important to this dude? Would a supercharged V8...

alright alright alright I love me an oil thread. There's an engineer on the mustang threads. boosted gen3 coyote are similar-ish to disi in that they're high cylinder pressure engines that usually crack ringlands due to knock. This guy swears by euro oils, never seen dexos mentioned in the...

I only want to touch tips

this sucks. any update?

so what's your current setup? Stock mani with the GT turbo?

The noise turned out to be headers on body. The motor mounts are slotted so I just scooted the engine over a little bit. Made plenty of clearance and no more rattle. did a 1st gear hit at 20 and it didn’t really spin except the 1-2 and 2-3 shift. Nt555rii seem to be good tires. Got caught in...

Haven’t been on here in a minute but still keep in touch with a lot of the guys. In April I picked up a 2019 Bullitt. I was looking for a 18+ PP1 GT but this Bullitt has literally every option from a GT Premium - 12 speaker B&O, heated cooled seats, blind spot, digital cluster, mag ride shocks...

Can you overlay these? Looks like 3500 the 6266 comes in ahead lmaoooo

They're leaving the cam bolt(s) loose when they release the cam chain tensioner. From my understanding this ensures equal tension on the chain and that there won't be tight or loose spots. whether that's necessary, I'm not sure.

is your timing chain loose? Can you link a vid highlighting what you mean? Any time you loosen the cam bolts, you should replace the friction washers.

I got my truck ceramic coated. I did the "bronze" package at a detail shop which was paint correct and ceramic pro light. I then put a layer of some amazon shit 10H over the ceramic light. And honestly it's been great. I can run it though the touchless wash and it looks fine once it dries. If...

Did you remove all 4 bolts on the drain line (2 on turbo, 2 on pan) or just the ones from the pan?

Well, I have a problem. The correct number of cars is always n+1 so I just added another to the list. I originally bought a 2002 C5 Z51 to be my toy. But shortly after I bought it, made a life change and moved across the country. I now live on an Indian reservation, which is pretty remote. I...

Big Turbo Si time
