New oil makes it accelerate faster??? First time I heard that, how much is it for this RP?

I thought it was 20RWHP if you put a RP STICKER on your truck. The oil only adds 7RWHP by itself.

lol, if you can feel the difference, kudo's. I don't recall doing so. I'm sending my oil to the blackstone labs for an analysis, will let you know the results. This was one LONG oil change, so it's going to be interesting to see the results. I haven't changed it in 8k miles, just experimenting (I've heard of synthetics being ran until 15k in bmw's, obviously not ideal but I'm changing at half that).

I say the analysis comes back indicating you have a lot more life left in the oil.
