Royal Purple Oil

[Slee]

Hey guys what are some thoughts on a royal purple oil? I plan to start using them on my car as I currently use Penrite. People tend to be using them. And if so which is the best one to use for a track and street use. Thanks

Might help if you start with what car, engine, mods, mileage, etc...

And RP, you'll see a lot of ppl saying its the best cause they don't know better, or the price tag indicates quality, etc... Others will say not worth it...

What engine etc. do you have and any reason why you are wanting to change from using Penrite?

Because Honda = race car

If not race car , OEM Honda or equivalent is perfectly fine.

Personally I'd prefer penrite, nulon or castrol but some people like to spend more..

Its not as great as RP apparently...

If not RP my car might explode... Hence the justification for another 30-50 hit up =|

Doesn't really matter with intervals of 5k for a daily

Well I hear that it cleans your engine. My car is a del sol with a b16a2 with around 178xxx km. Have some bolt ones such as headers exhaust and a varex muffler. Also running on some short intake. Is it any good? Or could I get better ones than RP

Most reptutable brands do it, nothing new...

A lot of this Slee is branding, hype and perception.

As others have said, you're not actively racing so any tangible benefits of running premium oils [Fusion, HKS, etc] is minimal at best. Having said that, there are differences between brands, grades and etc but all dependent on your engine ie try it and see.
