    Thoughts on Purolator Boss filters

    Well, we never got a date code, so... It was around the transition time. The ultra is still better. What else can I say?

    Thoughts on Purolator Boss filters

    Hopefully the new boss filter does have that efficiency rating, we never got a date code on the one tested here which is linked a few comments ago. It competes with the Fram Ultra which is a little better on the efficiency.

    High performance (800hp+) for winter and summer - Audi 4.0t

    Yep, I would only consider a 60 weight for E85. The 50 should be good if you running 2 turbo's at higher boost pressures, lots of heat there and ethanol already reduces the protection of the oil. Whatever way you go just change at 3k miles (5000km) and keep an eye on the turbo screens.

    High performance (800hp+) for winter and summer - Audi 4.0t

    I don't think a 800whp modified twin turbo car is aligning with the test procedure carried out in that study. Which is: 'Such method of proceeding is predicted in numerous test procedures, including those developed under the CEC and is intended to reflect average engine operating conditions...

    High performance (800hp+) for winter and summer - Audi 4.0t

    You just answered you own question. Ethanol does instant damage to the oil, its not like fuel that burns off. Its already oxidized and damaged the oil before its burnt off. Do some UOA's on these turbo charged cars you have worked with. In my post I was also considering that the engine will be...

    High performance (800hp+) for winter and summer - Audi 4.0t

    Depends which fuel, they have screens that get blocked, that's the common problem.

    High performance (800hp+) for winter and summer - Audi 4.0t

    What fuel will it run on? 50 minimum you are adding 100% more power nearly. Any alcohol fuel you will have to run a 60. Have you seen this

    MOTUL or Castrol engine flush question

    Just flush it otherwise it costs 3 times as much, takes 3 times longer and it still doesn't work as well unless you fork out for a engine flush oil. The new flushes are quality products these days. They do not effect the new oil.

    Blew my o rings with too much Techron or Redline...

    Its the same in the rail (unless boosted) but not getting there to maintain pressure.

    Blew my o rings with too much Techron or Redline...

    No one really knows, too many variables. But we all have an opinion of course 😁

    Blew my o rings with too much Techron or Redline...

    Um did you consider redlining your car increases the fuel pressure, that's why they busted, unless you redline it to work everyday...

    What is the story on K&N oil filters today?

    Yep, we had old stock of the standard black which have changed as well now. I have a thread with a cut up of the original black can. Where is this information from?

    K&N Silver (Black) PS-2010 Autopsy

    Haha, yea its called a barra after the barramundi fish in Australia. They had to re-design the ADBV because they were chewing through ADBV back in the early to mid 2000's. I think they just went to a silicone ADBV which was newish back then. Ford Australia had Motorcraft make them in Thailand...

    K&N Silver (Black) PS-2010 Autopsy

    This is the old silver model before the e-core. Its a very good filter, not sure what the new ones are like. This has 5K miles on it which were fairly sedate miles waiting for my new tune. Oil was 5w-50 Nulon Racing. This is the best design ADBV I have seen on any filter so far, it is so pliable...
