Royal Purlpe

[DoubleJ]

has anyone used in there Tiburons and if so how did they like it. time for an oil change and was thinking about useing royal purple eng oil and trany fluid

[Visionz]

Everyone I have ever talked to said that it was great stuff. I personally have never used it, so I can't give an accurate opinion. But I guess it's some of the best oil out there. :hmmm:

[DoubleJ]

yea thats what i herd but in the tiburon manual it says use 10 w 30 oil only i dont want royal purple to hurtthe eng basicly wondering if its ok to use synthetics in the beata 1 motor

[aemht]

i use castrol synthetic oil 10w 30 its suppossed to be the best oil for a beta 1

[C B]

I have used royal purple in my beta. It is the same as mobil 1 as far as I can tell.

[Spiffywerks]

Synthetic Oil is safe for all cars. Just get the same weight as recommended.

I use Mobil 1 - 10/w30.

Just choose a company and stick with it. It's not good to mix different brand synthetic oils. (ie. Mixing Mobil 1 and Castrol Syntec)

I don't see the benefit of royal purple for it's cost.

royal purple is suppose to be "THE SHIT" like redline.

Both of which are expensive. Make sense.

Fully synthetic are suppsoe to be "BAD" for HLAs. It has do something with a 10w30 fully synthetic is thinner then a dino oil. so its really like a 7w25

While yes... Fully Synthetic is better then Dino Oil, its seems Synthetic blend is best in most engines.

Its combines the better quality of the synthetic with the texture of normal oil.

You should never run anything higher then a 40w in a modern motor, the oil is to thick to fill into the pin hole on the HLAs and into the smaller modern engine oil galleries.

With any oil change. brand and weight. run a motor flush.

Most common motor flush found at Pep boys and Advanced auto is
gunk 5 min engine flush
eagle one engine flush.

GUNK is far superior.

My fav brand of engine oil is 5w30 castrol syntec blend

((Now before some ASS comes in saying I am wrong, this is not my opinion or fact,just a running theory I have read mentioned on MANY websites, and I am sharing here))

fully synthetic are supposed to be "BAD" for HLAs. It has do something with a 10w30 fully synthetic is thinner then a dino oil. so its really like a 7w25. slightly lower oil pressure.

(( Now my opinion ))

thanks I apreaceate the opinions I think ill go with the castrol synthetic just couse royal purple is so expensive but u never know when i get there i might change my mind and im deffinetly going to get a flush done THANKS A BUNCH

[Superist]

I have used Royal Purple in my Tib since I got it. I put the engine and tranny fluid in and it was a noticiable difference. With Engine and tranny fluid, K&nN factory box filter and Bosch Platium 4's I beat 2000 tib with CAI!!!
