ROYAL PURPLE IS TERRRRRRIBLE for your motor.
however it does put out good power numbers.
First I asked shawn church what he thought about oils. He stated exactly what I already knew to be fact. Which is that good oil protection generally equals slightly lower power output such as mobile 1. While oils like royal purple and torco make good power numbers on a dyno but are lacking in protection and or longevity ie oil life.
ALSO...... for more personal experience with royal purple.....
Pro C.O.R.R (Championship Off Road Racing) champions:

1.Curt Leduc (pro-4)
2. Todd Leduc (pro-2)
3. Kyle Leduc (pro-lite)
I was on the crew and a I'm a friend off Todd/Kyle who were sponsored by royal purple.... the shit sucked SOOOO bad that they actually paid out of pocket to run other oil and just left the sponser stickers on the trucks to save the money. The royal purple rep. himself even straight up told us that the oil was terrible for care of motor however did produce phenomenal power output to the wheels. NEVER EVER would I put royal purple in my S2000. Unless it was a race only vehicle and money was no object.
