Royal Purple + Vortech
I'm going out and buying some Royal purple for the stang. What oil viscosity is recommended when using a vortech blower on my 02 4.6? Is it still 5w30? Thanks!
Figured I'd go ahead and get hersome clean oil during the vortech install, start things out fresh.

RE: Royal Purple + Vortech
I used RP for a couple of oil changes and I was discusted at the amount of crap in the oil after 3-4k miles. RP has a LOT of clensers so be prepared to start getting ugly oil. I figured I cleaned the inside of the motor a few times and now it's time to go back to good old Mobile1 synthetic...
5w or 10w /30 will work for you depending on climate and what you perfer.
Mobile1 is great and it's a little cheaper so it's my choice.

RE: Royal Purple + Vortech
Thanks alot man. That's the second person recommended Mobil 1, I think i'll go with youon that after a cycle or two of RP. I just wanted to make sure, do my best with the vortech going on and all.
You have some awesome numbers, are youforged and/or PI swap? j/w, there has to be more than a vortech on there!pretty car tho.

My mods are PI engine (not a gay swap), stock headers, o/r H, flows w/ stock piping, 75mm tb, big Plen, v2 10lbs and I/C'd. And some sweet tuning using SCT.
I have a factory freak, I can't explain it.
