Been a warm winter so far but the difference between this and what i was running (m1 fs 0w40) is noticable even at 15 degrees

Thanks for sharing!

HPL Super Car 0W-30 should be great for those who've had cold piston slap, and anyone who lives in colder climates. Definitely on my supplier list.

If you have the 44-44, Redline C+ is ok, that is what I used in my TC and it works fine and was less then half the cost of the Mopar fluid.
For a 44-44 you want Red Line MT-LV if it's 2016 or newer or Red Line D4 if it's 2015 or older. Red Line C+ works because it's blended with the same additive package from Lubrizol as Red Line D4 and D6, however, Red Line C+ uses a lot of VII that tend to shear down in a chain driven transfer case. But yes, it works... However, the other alternatives work slightly better.

^^^This is the road we are being forced down. It is going to have a very negative affect on our lives.

The new greeny crusade the WEF is pushing is "15 minute cities". The short version is they limit how far you can travel from your house by car.

Look it up. They track you and limit your freedom in the name of being green. This world is turning to crap.

Mike,

The new formula 0W30 has been packaged for about 4 months, in about 2 months I will update the mapping and recommend updating the web site description.

Regards,

Funny how what goes around comes around. Researching the history of electricity, it was initially thought of as having almost magical curative powers and was used by the "medical" community as a cure-all for whatever ailed ya. Seems like we've driven a big loop right back where we started...lol!

How many choices does someone with a di turbo who wants pao/ester with widespread distribution and time tested brand and di oil? I don't prefer the new formula 0w30 to the old one for the hemi, but this was a great move for modern di's imo. I had been asking for this for a decade, obviously I would have done it a little different, but still a win for a lot of people. Plus we are "assuming" it wont be just as good at killing hemi tick, but it was 5w20 that killed my tick, so until that is proven I say show me. There is more to a formula then just visc, and especially for guys with di's.

For race car markets? Red line target market is racing - why would racers care about API SP and LSPI and max fuel economy?

Wouldn't they care more about load carrying? The last thing I'd think formula 1 type racers would care about is a watered-down oil for city cars?

If Red Line is marketing to consumers instead of racers, they have a lot of work to do in marketing and base oil rationalizing.
