these videos look fake and gay but to be honest this shit actually works...

@thecartel360 - LOL, Royal Purple is actually probably the worst in most tests. And trying to say, "screw the tests, Royal Purple works where it really matters in real world applications" is complete crap. You can ONLY rely on tests to show what product is better as there's these little things called "facts" that tests prove. I'd personally rather put cheap Walmart brand dino oil in my car than Royal Purple. Might have to change it sooner but at least it works better.

If you Google "porsche sm oil", you will receive a nasty surprise indicating the newest API SM rated motor oils have less of the anti-wear additive known as "ZDDP" or zinc dialkyldithiophosphate compared to oils formulated to meet only the "from six years ago" API SL rating. The reduction of ZDDP results in more friction, and as a result, more wear on engine components.
Turns out newer is not always better.

I am an Amsoil user in everything from my lawnmower, ATV's, cars and diesels. This stuff is truely amazing. My differential temps on my truck dropped 12deg celcius when I put in amsoil and all my greasable joints are now greesed less. I recommend Amsoil to anyone. The best oil money can buy.

How well does this test replicate the conditions inside heavy machinery parts?

@HiTechOilCo only the OE, PCO (diesel), and XL line has a API certification.

@thecartel360 - Oh, by the way, AMSOIL 5W-20, 5W-30 and 10W-30 have the current API SM rating.
@thecartel360 - I wonder why it is that Royal Purple 5W-20, 5W-30 and 10W-30 are merely API SL rated, from *six years* ago? The current highest API rating is SM and has been for almost six years. Even Wal Mart oil is API SM rated. So much for, "excelling". :)
