There's sure to be some pretty slippery stuff out there that we haven't fully fathomed out.
Vekke used WS2 / tungstensulfide in his Lupo for reduced friction.
Seems to have worked, though Vekke was doing lots of mods at the same time.
Hägar ran smoother as well, however with no verifiable improvement in FE (WS2 in engine oil only , 1g / L).
If you've ever used "Teflon spray" that instantly reduces friction as well.
Spray-on-slippery without oily residue.
Seemed like magic in the day. Still does.
I first saw it sometime in the 90s, still horribly expensive, but we used it extensively in the pharmaceutical industry as machinery oil on prescription drugs is generally frowned upon.
As for DiamondLube, you were offered near-free testing by people who are already well into fuel efficiency improvement ... why not take advantage of it ?
