royal purple???

[evotech240sx]

hey there you guys.... i was woundering about if n-e of you guys were running the royal purple oil??? is it really worth it??? my buddy told me about it and hes runing it on his neon and he says he felt a little bit better respone on his ride..... i was woundering if i should use it or just use the mobil 1 fully syn. type. what do u guys think???

[slydin'240]

I was thinking of using it to. I saw an episode of horsepower tv where they changed all fluid over to royal purple: crank case, transmission, rear diff, and a coolant additive. They dyno'd before and after and gaind 7.5 hp. Not too bad for changing just your fluids.

Hummm, that sound kind of funny.but who know.

[slydin'240]

I was always told that less friction = more power.

I'd go with Lucas, but I've heard good things about Royal P too.

[evotech240sx]

well, i changed the oil to royal purple...... and i'll tell you what. it is worth it. my repose on the engine is much much better and my idling is sooooo much better........ do it if u havent done it. plus u only have to change the fully syntheic oil every 7000 miles.

I use it, I change it every 3,000 miles though.

Great Idea, It will outlast anything else on the market.

[Zydeco]

how much are you guys paying per quart?

[AkademikONE]

Around 6 bucks.

I use Mobil 1 15w-50 in my CA. I have heard lots of folks swear by it and so far it has treated me well. $4 a quart. Now I have used RP synthetic gear lube on my last 2 cars and then with my swap. Great stuff for those old and girl-driven synchros (both of my last 2 cars were previously owned by women and the synchros were slow and noisy...RP fixed that right up.)

for the price amsoil or redline and you only change it once a year (in na cars of course).

[240sxin]

damn 6 bucks! ill stick with my good old gtx high mileage.

[AkademikONE]

It's only like 8 bucks more than Mobil 1 for an oil change.

[MaxType 240]

I made the switch from Mobil-1 and it still made a considerable difference. Smooth shifting, idle, engine/valvetrain more quiet all-around.

I'd recommend for turbo cars, overkill for NA cars.
