The 3400lb truck twin turbo truck has a turbo 400 and doesnt get over 160 when being street driven. And if he could figure out how to build boost in less than 5-8 seconds, he wouldnt see the temps he does.

SO WHAT WOULD TEMP DIFFERENCE IN TRANSYND 265, MOBIL1 DEXRON VI, and type F be. Understand it's not exactly the same in all situations and a combination of parts and vehicle.

Coolest to warmest in your order. The synthetics do a much better job at getting rid of the heat than dino oil.

I found the switch from F to transynd to be around 15 degrees.

Yes

It's amazing that similar oils can have up to a 10% higher coefficient of heat transfer. Very impressive.

Chevron Delo has an approved fluid and I’m sure mobile Delvac will have one just like they did for the 295 fluid. I’ve never used Castrol on anything.

I ran Amsoil once for one race. What I saw on the data recorder didn't make me happy. It was as if the clutch engagment slowed down. After that it was back to the ATI/Driven stuff.

Yea, but Amsoil is generally trash, and i wouldnt put it in my lawnmower. But i am not a fan of them, or their snake oil salesmen.
