80mph is about 4400, 4500ish. I been running a chipped p-28 that runs rich as hell and I just went 230 miles on 10 gallons.

With 195/55 tires on 15" wheels I turn 4200 rpm at 80 mph which happens to be the sweet spot for the AEM.

back from the dead!

im around 4k @ 70 , and 4300-4400 @ 80...

now i commute to work 25 miles on the highway each way, would sustaining this speed for a good half hour do a number on my oil? Reason i ask is because i go through about 1/2 qt oil every tank. would oil cooler help this situation?

thanks

Yep, brought this topic back from the dead... needed to know if driving at 4k for about 25-30 mins at a time will burn off my oil?

get a catch can.....

180-180-180-185 on my motor on an ol'skool snap-on gauge....

drove 1300kms 6000plus rpm with a JDM final drive + lots of visits to redline. I had to fill oil twice during that trip.....4 stops for gas....3 complete full gas-ups plus a top up cuz it was still cheap before I got into the other city....

25-30mins ain't going to hurt much at all....but get a good catchcan.
