Thanks for the UOA on ur titan. I have one also. Although i dont know what to say except that everything is very very good. Can you tell me what oil you used in your previous oci? And, did you do anything differently to get the sodium down? Maybe someone else can chime in here...
Here you go!

Wow..chewed the heck out of the viscosity @ 53.6
this is the new sm version....is it that bad for 3,000 intervals? it being supercharged and driven hard daily i thought the chevron would be fine for 3000 mile intervals??
Same here.
I've used up my Mobil product and will not use again. (better product for less money in my book, plus no sodium)
Your welcome on the posting. I took your info out for you also
Not really. TBN of 2.0 still has some life left and your engine and driving style is hard on oil.
Take care, Bill
Have any idea what kind of HP your truck is producing with all of the upgrades?
dyno proven.....425rwhp and 431rwtq.....thanks for everyones input....
hey guys, need some more input.....is this oil gonna cut it for 3-4000 mile intervals on my supercharged baby????
Looks like it should since it did very well. If you want to push the interval a little longer and run cooler oil temps, especially with a s/c and excessive city driving why not go with a full synthetic? Castrol 0w30 comes to mind.
ive ran both...before the supercharger i was running the sl version of the chevron and going 5,000 miles with great reports...i change all my vehicles at 5,000 miles. at 1.25 quart the chevron was doing excellent in all my cars so i thought why should i spend 5 per quart when i can get the same results for 1.25 per quart?? but after seeing this anaylisis for 3,000 i was kinda surprised at the tbn and vis....i really thought 5,000 mile intervals would be no problem...i guess all the city driving coupled with supercharger running a little rich its chewing the oil up good....i posted this to see get opinions and i may go back to syn IF I MUST...keep em coming guys....thanks, john
thanks for posting and i quit using mobil after several uoas with sodium....
I'd have no qualms about running Chevron 10w-30 dino in your truck. I ran dino in a turbo Talon and never a problem; clean shiny inards and the turbo was just fine. But I'm one of those dino only guys
thanks drew99gt, keep em coming.....
WOW that would put alittle over 500hp at the crank -20% driveline loss does that sound right? NICE. I agree I would give that beast the GC treatment and see how that held up my guess is 5k drains would be no prob at all. Good luck either way you go keep us updated though.
GC gold or green for your baby...
where can i buy gc...ive never seen it in my area
just found some gc gold and will run it for 7500 miles and sample....will post results..
