Can you get that real time data with a chassis or hub dyno or is that not real world enough? I’ve never had a dyno session
 
Dodge did an oil analysis and determined that there was a significant amount of metal in the oil and the engine is destroyed. As a result, Dodge will be providing a new replacement engine.

Note- The engine only had about 2,000 miles on it and the oil was changed every 23 passes.
I would really love to see the oil analysis, compression tests, and then a lot of shots of them taking apart the motor.

Does the supercharger have its own oil, or does it share the engines oil?

Not for issues that are occurring at the hit

His car was malfunctioning when he was trying to launch it. There is only one place you can test that. And that is at a sticky track

The engine might be on its way out too. Who knows. I no longer trust my beloved Dodge. Never trusted racer xyz. He looks like a GM guy

See? ^^^? That’s growth ^^^. I didn’t call him a Chevy dick : )
 
Actually, I believe he destroyed a Mustang first...

Yesterday YouTuber TK's Garage reported there are 11 Demon 170 engine failures all having significant amounts of metal in the oil. If we recall, the 170 release was delayed supposidly because of engine failures. I feel sorry for folks that spent over $100K only to have their prized car sitting in a dealership for an extended time.

For the first time today I'm feeling maybe I was lucky that my attempt to purchase a Demon 170 failed.
