ahh ok. acidic byproducts then, happen regardless of usage (highway/light miles). so there will be buildup and these oils don't have the TBN to combat that buildup. acidic buildup then leads to corrosion. straightforward enough, i suppose. guess you can't have the best of both worlds.
aside from very high zddp, i was hoping to find oils that combat aeration as well.
may still do a 3mo uoa of this, 3mo uoa of dominator, and see what comes up.
You should add Motul 300V to your mix of testing. In my experience, it will live longer on the street, and perform very similarly to Redline
