Dont use royal purple, especially when there are better cheaper options. If youre looking for the "best" locate an amsoil dealer, if youre looking for decent try castoil syntec or my new favorite pennzoil ultra...try to change your filter every oil change

ROTFL!!!!!

Seriously, use the search button. There are about 16 gazillion threads on this. And make sure to support your local pyramid and use Amsoil.

Amsoil, I wouldn't run royal purple especially if your boosting. Also I read mobil 1 makes the TCT go bad faster, not sure how much truth is behind that.

There we go! There's our first M1 bash. And I don't think it makes the TCT go bad faster. The TCT goes bad on it's own cause it's a bad design.
