I found this link on socaldsm yahoo group, they had a link to a discussion on http://www.3si.org/forum/showthread.php?t=...53&page=1&pp=10 (http://www.3si.org/forum/showthread.php?t=214253&page=1&pp=10)

i guess the 3s guys are loving it, i hear its pretty expensive but for some of you with shifting problems (different treatment) or lifter tick problems it might be helpful.

Wow, another snake oil product that cures everything. :bs: Do a little research on the snake oil companies that touted you could run your car with no oil after their "treatment", a little enlightenment here is in order.

Just use sawdust, its thicker ;).
In all seriousness, it seems good, but I need something to go through MAJOR testing before I'll stick it in my motor or recommend it.

like someone mentioned earlier in that thread..

they stuck a pipe thru the walls of chernobil nuclear plant.. and are runing oil from one side of it to the other..

if you buy this you have to have newly designed lead underwear if you ever want to have kids again..

I am all over this, technical advice from Tom? You know it has to be top quality! Besides, they were talking about it in Cali so it must be badass! I am going to put some in Swanny's tempo! Then it will never die, that will piss him off good. :bounce:

I say go for it, I have tryed that kind of stuff. I put "Prolong" in my DSM after the rebuild. does it work? fuck if I know, but like people that think premium is better fuel for thier car and drive a KIA Rio. I feel good about it. And that is all that matters. I would like to try somthing like that in the Talon. Thanks for posting I'm still looking at getting some, or somthing else. I will test before and after when I do.

I would like to add that, this kind of stuff is a band-aid at best. I just like to play with it. I would not use it to "fix" something. Fixing cars is my job not mechanic in a can. :goodluck:

So I'm going to vent a little bit about this.....

What I find to be quite interesting is how if some of the more "knowledgeable or experienced members" on this board had posted a link or reference to the EXACT same thing Tom did, I can guarantee those of you reading this that half of the stupid shit said in this thread would never be posted. Why is that? Because too many people can't look past certain characteristics of Tom to actually be respective and consider to something he is referencing. Sure Tom says some stupid shit sometimes, we all know that, Tom knows that, but my point in general is that it is things like this that end up getting newbies flamed (i.e.: A lot shit on Tuners, Talk, or even the Cyclone Intake thread on here that Mike cleaned up).
