Random thoughts for the day

Hope with the release of the exhaust that we will be getting a calibration update as well

thanks, i will update in probably a month.  I have nitro+ in the Fusion right now, ready to refuel in a couple of days.  Then I will go back to 87 for 1 tank, about 2 weeks worth.  THEN comes the ACES.  With winter 87, been getting about 24 mpg with some effort.  With winter nitro+, 25.5 mpg.  But I want to use 87 on a regular basis, and 93 infrequently.  Fingers crossed!
 
woot! i hit the 12's on my first run of the night. 12.94 @ 105.79 mph. i got a datalog of the run and sent it off to torrie. maybe he'll get me a revision before i leave
 
Best run of 12.91 @ 106.5 with a 1.882 60'
Torrie sent me an update as I was waiting in line to stage. I didn't get to download it. The track said they're open next week since the weather is supposed to be nice. I might make it down there again
 
Even if you had, it may not have given you the best time, it would only FEEL like it was running better, unfortunately.  Def hope you can be there next week to set another PB!
 
May we all hope that there is not sweeping regulations making everyone on this board panic for new catalytic converters...

I think we car aficionados won in that regard.  Not only do I not see that happening, but we may see a relaxing of the ridiculous CAFE mandates being placed on car manufacturers.

I dont know that i would use euro spec oils...many do but that doesnt always mean its ok..

They have different additive packs

They have a different level of SAP's...sulfated ash, phosphorus...we have different emission equipment and and those will affect them....in amsoil the euro oils are api certified but do not meet ford specs so they are not recommended

Amsoil is good at telling you what oil and viscosity and drain interval wont void your warranty

Wonder why amsoil seems to be the only one that displays the total base number?
