"Bogging" in first gear

You realize that SM oil is formulated to provide lubrication up to a constant 300*F. Why do you think the car goes into limp mode at 280*F? Getting too close

Getting too close to 300*F so they program the ecu to force a cool down period to save your engine from potential damage. Oil worries at temps of 260*F are long gone with newer oil specs. 220*F? That's relatively cool for cars being built now.

apparently nissan engineers disagree with u it's been a known fact that the ecu pulls timing on our car at anything over 220. sucks but it is what it is. once tuners can fully understand our ecu's and program this stuff the 370 will be a beast. the torque management needs to go as well, war too intrusive IMHO.
