amsoil outperforms royal puple in every test...i dont know where i saw it, but they compared all the synthetic oils together...amsoil,valvoline,castrol,redline,royal puple, pennzoil,mobil 1, and a few other small ones...amsoil won like 10 out of 11...believe it or not, pennzoil took the other 1...also, asmoil warrants anything that goes wrong if its the oils fault, parts and labor
