that **** is like 6.50 a quart.......no joke it is expensive......i will stick with my vr-1 racing oil by valvoline @ 1.69/qt, and change it every 2k miles....and on top of it being cheaper, it has very low ash content and burns off LESS oil through an oil change period than any synthetic that i put in the car.....

I used Royal Purple in my TII and noticed lower temp when Autocrossing. I no longer have a OMP so I am running AMSOIL 20W50 Racing oil in my engine and Amsoil 100:1 Synthetic Racing Premix in my tank. So far so good. Amsoil claims to be way out ahead of the rest as far as synthetics go.

It seems to run/rev alot smoother..seriously. I don't think I gained enough hp from it to actually feel the difference if any.
