I looked but didn't see any other posts on this. I am turboing my D16 and a friend recomended Royal Purple oil. Has anyone used it and if so what weight oil do you recomend?

Thx,
Nick

Royal Purple is good. I've used it... pretty much the same as the Mobil 1 synthetic that I use. Just use which ever one you can get cheaper. They both do the job just fine.

running royal purple in a D series is a complete waste of money. I would only run royal purple in a fully built motor made of titanium
