Is it true that royal purple full synethic oil can increase our car horsepower by 3?

Personally, I think any hp claims from just swapping out your oil is negligible. Even if it were true, do you think you're gonna feel 3hp?

I think that if you can manage to get a good synth oil on the cheap (like Mobil 1), you'll do just as good.

You'll have a hard time feeling the difference even with the 10 hp gain let alone 3 hp. If you want to use Synthetic, you are more than ok with Mobil 1.

don't listen to anything anyone tells you. just choose and stick with the brand you like as long as it doesn't give you problems you're golden.

I just use Mobile 1. I guess you can try them and get them dynoed to see :-P but that would be if you've got money to spend and time. But still it's almost a moot point with 3 hp.

BTW, I'm gonna start RP 5w-20 in about 800 miles when I hit 9,000 on my odo.

I use Amsoil synthetic but I mean royal purple is a great alternative too, a tad cheaper than Amsoil as well..

+1 i use amsoil euro blend for my a4 my oil runs 15 degrease cooler than mobil 1 ( my a4 has a oil temp gauge) my mpg improoved and the engines is quieter too. i also do a seafoam treatment every 3k through the vac lines in the tank and pour half a botle in to the oil pan 100 miles before oil changes

nippon oil is really expensive. ITs little bit better than royal purple. I don think nippon oil is worth the money

Slick50 does all that too, but I wouldn't run it in my street engine.

I have seen 3hp gains in motorcycle engines from just using quality synthetics over petro oils.
