    I think it's a test for popular "performance oils".

    I'd also like to see results for Liquid Moly, Eneos and some other brands.

    The heat was worrying me, but... think about it... a lot of the metal on metal wear and tear inside the engine occurs during cold starts.

    While the effects of additives are dubious because they break down under heat, most of these commercial oils should be stable at heat... they're designed not to thin out at high temps... so cold-starts should give a good idea of how they perform throughout their heat range.

    Still, I'd like to see a retest of those synths and fully-synths that had backwards results at full operating temps... as I think it's just the thicker cold rating viscosity that's making the semi-synths outperform their expensive cousins.

    Ang pagbalik ng comeback...

    Yup. Just talked to Ferman at Speedlab... he says that some people recommend it over Motul (feels too think at high temps, supposedly). I think I'm willing to go with the 10w40 for my next oil change. Just need to find a way to get this past the casa (they frown upon non-Shell oils)... but as I'm at 75,000 kms, I'm not sure I want to go through the hassle of using casa oils for another 25,000 kms of my warranty.

    Temperature surely is a factor there on the tests done... Di naman magkakaroon ng sugat yung metal kung walang friction - which leads to high temperature build up...

    Ford Extended... 5 years or 100 - 125k kms (forgot which), whichever comes first.

    Getting kind of sick of it... with all my mods, I'd be lucky if they actually honored my engine warranty, anyway.

    been an avid user of royal purple for a long time.it does cost more than your conventional motor oil but getting an extra 10HP(proven already by alot of friends ran on dynos and TV car shows like horsepowerTV) its worth every penny i spend.
    used for my engine oil,rearend differential and trans fluid.

    Oooh... nice read.

    I'm definitely going to try out Royal Purple the next time around (1000 kms to go!)... my fuel consumption also slightly decreased while using Motul too.

    oppss... parang pareho tayo... di din ako masyadong satisfied sa motul oil na nilagay ko during my last change oil.... parang napansin ko din yung slightly decrease sa fuel consumption. I've been using mobil 1 eversince and I think it's time for me to try that Royal purple. kahit na 8K palang ang tinatakbo ng motul ko ay parang gusto ko ng palitan ng bagong oil.

    niky, dang... tagal nyan ah!

    deedee, i doubt the 10hp is super accurate. it depends on the size of the engine to begin with but gains like those are more on the big engines/diesels.

    mazdamazda, what are the viscosity req of your rav? wanna try out the 30 viscosity oil? check the manual muna kung pwede

    royal purple is available na, we might be stocking on this product based on this testand from what I have seen its around the price of most synthetic oils available. Penrite available sa RATS 4x4 pang diesel, will confirm if may pang gas na full synthetic.

    youre right.im only vouching for modified V8 engines gaining up to 10HP.i would assume also that the smaller engines will gain some but not as much like the V8.

    heres a couple of test videos of the royal purple.
    the show horsepowerTV that i saw is still different from the video i posted(i always watch spikeTV on saturday and sunday mornings.2 hours of nothing but modified cars and trucks.shows are 30 min each.muscle car,horsepowerTV,trucks and extreme 4X4)

    speedy, I think deedee drives a 400+hp truck...

    btw, 5w-30 is recommended for cold temperatures lang for the 1AZFE engine (at least that's how I interpret it). let me double check on that.

    hello guys

    royal purple is new in the market and i think this product will click ... i know i sell this stuff ... but the price is a bit high for regular consumers ...

    my advice is try using 76 LUBRICANTS ... this brand is not bad and it is improving to get better ... the price is almost the same ... sells about 450 per liter 5W-40 pure synthetic oil

    for those of you in a cheaper budget ... i can recommend ... super 20w-40, guardol 15w-40 and guardol 10w-30 (for gas and diesel) all 76 brand ... this price ranges for 150 - 175 per liter ... and API standards through the roof ..... ask conoco ...

    http://lubricants.conocophillips.com...t/about_76.asp
    [SIZE=2]What The Future Holds[/SIZE]
    [SIZE=2]The long-standing history and substantial growth of the 76 Lubricants brand, has helped to solidify its presence within the industry. In 2002, Phillips Petroleum Company, 76 Lubricants’ parent company, merged with Conoco Inc. to become ConocoPhillips Company, the fourth largest U.S. lubricants supplier. ConocoPhillips will continue to meet customers’ product, service and value expectations through teamwork and cooperation.

    Pls note that Royal Purple oils are not BMW long Life 01 rated. They are API SL rated.

    Had my dad's E46 oil changed by Speedy. I used their Motul BMW specific oil. They also reset the oil change indicator.
