When i bought my car used at 102000mile the car acceleration was sluggish and it felt like the engine was dragging, so i decided to change my car oil with Royal purple... and all i have to say is WOW... the car accelerate so much smoother and the engine sound even stronger the list can go on and on.

Noticeable different overall, well worth the money, won't be switching to any other engine oil I also purchase the Royal purple oil fliter, due to it extended life. Every car can last forever with the proper care

Just what I ordered delivered quickly at a good price. What more could I say?

A good oil will just work. It will lubricate and protect. Most oil manufacturers create various grades of oils using different bases and techniques and they produce products that will do the job.

A fantastic oil will go beyond and Royal Purple does exactly that.

I am not an expert but I do know a thing or two about automotive mechanics. The area of lubrication fascinates me and from what I see on the internet, it fascinates many others as well. This is delightful as I was beginning to think that I was a freak! Perhaps I am and perhaps all of us are. Is it so bad to want what's best for your ki.......cars? Your cars! Yeah that's it, yeaaaah. Seee.

After building a supercharged vehicle, I became obsessed with making sure it was running in top shape. It was at the time, my only means of transportation. I started using Mobil 1 synthetic right away and for years, there was no problem. Mobil 1 is a perfect example of a good oil. It did it's job. I've always known about these so-called "high performance" engine oils out there such as Redline, Motul, AMSoil and Royal Purple. I figured that they were all just gimmicks because really, oil is oil right? Well I was wrong.

While shopping in Walmart, I noticed that they had cases of Royal Purple 10w30 for sale. I was there to pick up a case of Mobil 1 but the royal purple was there and it was only a few dollars more expensive. I figured, "why the hell not?". I brought it home and the next day, I changed my car's oil from Mobil 1 to Royal Purple. Now I forgot to mention that my oil changes, which I obviously do myself, happened every 3000-5000 miles and that I change the filter, every time. You can never be too careful with a forced induction car that wasn't meant to be forced to begin with.

Well when I started her up, I IMMEDIATELY noticed that there was a difference. What I noticed was quiet! Then I noticed how smooth the engine was running. It was just plain old special. After warming up I took her for a spin because that's what we do when we try new oils :). The butt-dyno was definitely telling me that the car was faster. She was definitely running stronger and smoother.

A few months ago, I decided to go back to Mobil 1 due to their formula changing (so I read). I wanted to give it another shot. After all was said and done, I went from a "fantastic oil" (Royal Purple) back to a "good oil" (Mobil 1)
Even though I knew I did not need to do it, I quickly swapped it out for some fresh new Purple :)

I tried using it in my little CRF150RB dirt bike but I didn't notice any differences. That bike is like a little bat outta hell. It does however, make a nice difference in my scooter. It is again, smoother, quieter and more powerful and with a scooter, every little bit helps.

In conclusion, in my personal experience and opinion, Royal Purple is just far beyond anything else that I've used.


Info:

Car 10w30:

Mobil 1 - Good
Royal Purple - Fantastic


Dirt Bike 15w40-20w50

AMSOil - Too happy to care
Motul - Having too much fun to give a rip
Royal Purple - Noticeable gains in yeeehawww but not with oil

Scooter: 10w30-10w40

Mobil 1 - Noticeable gain in speed, lower temperatures, and longer viscosity life over petroleum-based oil
Motul semi - Similar to Mobil 1
Motul ester - Similar to Mobil 1
Motul double - Slower more sluggish at first but once oil is HOT, performs exceptionally better than Motul or Mobil 1
Royal Purple - Performs similar to Motul double ester but seems to keep viscosity longer and has a quicker "warm-up"
AMSOil - AMSOil is also a fantastic oil however, it is in my opinion, slightly less than Royal Purple. It does the job well and keeps it's viscosity for a long time but it does so at a higher cost.

I hope this helps!

I have a used '04 Rav4 with 79,000 mi, the engine idles at 800 rpm, vibrates a bit, and the combine mpg is meager average of 15.76, far from the 21 mpg expected. After doing a oil change w/ Royal Purple, the rpm is now 700 and engine vibration is lower. The combined mpg is now 18.16, that's definitely a great improvement there. Best decision I ever made. I can't wait to see what happens when I try their transmission and gear product.

THE BEST MOTOR OIL MADE TODAY. Full synthetic with an ACTUAL, noticeable horsepower and torque boost. No false promises here. Although expensive($8-$9 per quart at some places), IT IS WORTH IT. HIGHEST possible recommendation!!

Once I started using this oil, my Vtec started kicking really well. If your into performance I'd recommend this
