No matter how you slice it removing the cats net about another 25whp. This is a proven fact with hundreds of Ford GTs that have been tuned with or without them. Even "racing cats" dont net same results not even close. And i am not breaking any laws. I live in the great state of Florida and we do...

So i just purchased a 2005 Ford GT and factory recommendation is the Motorcraft full synthetic 5w-50 which i guess they also use in the Boss and their other 5.4 supercharged engines. The problem is that i have read a few stories that the company due to emissions removed the ZDDP and now what it...

I have recently gotten into kart racing and have been a member here for a while and gotten great information. I am great believer in synthetics overall. I use Motul 300V for my 900whp supra and amsoil for my other cars. The karting community swears by castor oil which has been around for a while...

Just picked up a 1999 Dodge Ram 1500 with 56,000 miles that appears to be in good condition. I am not sure if the owner used synthetic with this truck or not? What is the best oil for this 5.2L V8? I was thinking about Rotella T 5w-40? What do you guys think or the non synthetic Rotella 15w-40...

No he is not joking. With a true 1200whp, even 1200cc bikes bite the dust on the highway. Just to some search on youtube and see TT vipers and Supras in the +1000whp killing big bikes:)

From what I understand and looking at his service report it took 10quarts not 13?

How can i find out which oils are approved by MB?

17K total, 5K on this oil. My problem is if Mercedes would allow me to bring my own oil without messing with my warranty.

This is oil sample from my CLS55 with no make up oil. It has had regular oil changes approx. every 5K since new. This is the first oil analysis.

This is a UOA from my best friends 2006 BMW M6 V10. This oil had a little over 13,000 miles with 2 quarts of make up oil. BMW refused to change the oil under their "maintanance free" program since the oil/service light had not come on. I told him to screw and pay out of pocket. THere is no way i...

Is there a reason to chose the 10w-40 formulation over the 5w-40 formulation? It seems a bit confusing cause the 5w-40 has an HT/HS of 4.51 and the 10w-40 has an HT/HS of 4.19. Usually its the other way around. This is for a high HP turbocharged application. I just didnt know what the 10w-40...

I am thinking of purchasing a good quality/professional lever buffer. I was looking at the buffer that Griot's Garage offers for $129. I have always heard about nightmares on buffers that it takes a professional etc etc. I am wondering if anyone uses the Griot's or another type of buffer that is...

You are joking right?

I am using the AEM ecu so I no longer have a MAF. Is that basically the concern with the oiled filters? Just the MAF. I thought it was other things like filtration, etc.
