Interesting
I just emailed them asking for a complete explanation.
I also emailed a friend, who is an engineer here at USC.
We shall, get a explanation one way or the other.
i've used a 50% reduction since i started working on cars in the 80s, and my grandfather taught me that, who was a Tech 5 Tank mechanic in WWII. I've never had a failure due to improper torque; ever.
5-90's research and physics are spot on; I'm now intrigued.

Absent other verified/reliable information, I see no reason to discontinue torque reduction from "clean, dry" values - they've held up well under experiential and experimental conditions. Unless the compounds have been reformulated, which is the part I don't know.
