Using a lubricant with a high HTHS index will eliminate the wear of high load at low rpm.

The IDI International has an exceptional oiling system for low rpm high load.

Ever seen a N/A IDI towing 6 vehicles on a trailer? I have, that is one hell of a load on the oil.

They make top quality lubricant's for a reason...

You talking some Amsoil??? Lol
And no, I haven't seen a load like that.

AMSOIL is one of a few, on the top of the list, of TOP QUALITY Lubricant's.
I just like them the best because they are the only company that share wealth
with the dealers.
But no doubt other Synthetic lubricant companies have a lubricant's that are
top notch.
Only issue is securing a contract to purchase them. For Example Mobil1 has
Thousands of blends of lubricant's that they don't sell on the Retail Market.
After all they are they largest manufacture of synthetic lubricant's on the planet.

They sell product to most all other lubricant manufactures.

The VE cummins crowd talk about it, and their pumps don't flow to much more than a DB2. Maybe your right though.

Yes low end boost would help that, but it is ******* the bottom end. The difference between the wear and tear of 10psi at 1000rpms and 10psi at 2000 rpms is pretty drastic. Could theytake it? Yes. But it would decrease the life of everything that much more. Besides the backpressure to make 10psi at 1000rpms would be pretty darn high, only a VGT turbo could really achieve that and still have a driveable truck.

I'm not trying to argue with you, just regurgitate what I've read in the past LOL.

no no i am not trying to argue with anyone, but i have not seen or heard anyone damaging the lower end from low rpm boost. not that anyone has come close to doing that except for this twin turbo project. i just thought with more cylinder pressure to help the grunt off the line would be better. thats all

You want boost an fuel to come on at a steady incline. not bottle neck it an dump it all down low. Having the fuel dump on right away an having a lower rpm band will slow you down the gears aren't very high in these. I think what you mean would be for a different app.

What do you think is breaking it? Just massive torque? Balance issue? Are the c6 and e4od flex plates the same? Might try that if they are.
