Default Amsoil

Should I become a retail Dealer. Would you guys be interested in having a dealer as part of the site?

I have been running Royal Purple as well but I think Amsoil is slightly better. Also they have many more products.

Royal Purple breaks down too fast. Amsoil and Motul woulde good options to sell.

I've been using Royal Purple, but I've heard it has shearing issues. I think I'm switching to Amsoil next time.

On the whole I think it starts to become a serious issue when doing real road racing. The temps get crazy higher than anywhere else (including drag racing) and that's where the Gucci stuff really starts to be almost essential to engine longevity. I've been using heavy Rotella (mineral oil 15/40) for it's pretty stout characteristics and excellent bearing protection, but ti's definitely heavier and taps a little power. I'll be going with some Amsoil 5/30 and Amsoil ATF to replace the heavy weight hybrid mix I'm running in the T56 now. It might be interesting to do a before an after at a dyno day. I wouldn't expect a whole lot, but maybe a few HP.
