Unhappy

I wouldnt run either of them. You arent going to notice anything for a while. But when you start to put miles on it, it will start to run down a bit. Royal purple is worse then mobil one. But i still wouldnt use either of them.

You obviously have no idea what you're talking about. Castrol 0w-30, aka German Castrol, is much better than any street app Mobil oil short of EP....not to say that they're not good oils too, though...

It is a TRUE synthetic...
