I started using this in my Nissan 240sx years ago with no negative results. I picked up a Nissan 300zx Z32 twin turbo for dirt cheap. I didn't realize the oil pressure gauge wasn't faulty, and the 0 oil pressure was near accurate. Lest we forget I drove the car home in rush hour with not a drop of coolant because I was told the gauge was faulty. Stupid me.
Took the car on a cross country road trip before I addressed the oil pressure problem. Used Rotella T6. Needless to say, I'm sure the top-end and turbos were shot. Sometime after, I went to two different track events and went through about 15 qts of oil each day. Ran dry for two laps by accident. Surprised it made it home. M1 20w50 was used at those events. I decided to retire the car to be my ultra-fun winter beater. Soon after, I could only boost to around 3psi, [from 9psi max] which looked to be turbo failure after further analysis.
Started filling with M1 0w40 and a [full] bottle of Mos2 every OCI, and my consumption slowed after about 6 months. The rear end of the car would have a thick film of soot. A year or so after that, I can't even burn a drop of oil. My rear bumper is always clean, and I have little oil in the intercoolers. Intercoolers used to pour milkey oil out every time I removed them. I'm venting my crankcase to my pre-turbo intakes. Boost progressively became stronger than ever until I could finally hit 17psi with ease at 3500rpms. The Z32 TT is already set-up for a bypass filter, so I installed one.
Obviously, after running dry multiple times on a twin turbo and driving on low oil pressure for almost a year, this engine was very noisy, and the vibrations were more than alarming. This also wasn't your typical grocery getter. Drove white knuckled most of the time in fear that the engine would finally lock up. Since I have been using Mos2, the engine has been getting progressively quieter, smoother running, quicker spooling and oil consumption has been.....0 drops in 6k. The car has seen conditions most race cars haven't seen, such as running WOT at 155mph down the straight in BIR with 0 oil in the sump. I would never have expected myself to feel more confident in my 92 300zx TT's [with 220k miles] reliability, than that of my 350z's. The car is daily driven, short trips, every single day.
Literally, I cannot get the sump to decrease, therefor I had to actually change the oil in the -15*f temps of MN. Darn you MoS2!
Disclaimer: this is not me telling you that Mos2 works. I'm providing data for your own analysis. I am personally convinced without a doubt. Results could have been the same without Mos2, however I believe it prevented catastrophic engine failure many times.
