Hands down royal purple is the best. Research has proven it outperforms even mobil one, just not as well known because its only been on the market for regular drivers like us for a couple years, expensive though.

I was wondering if someone would mention Purple. I have to order it from Michigan. Haven't found anyyone down here that sells it. Most of the IRL garages have it but they don't have retail outlets.
