Anybody use this stuff their cobras? I've used Castrol Syntec since I've owned my car, but was wondering about the quality of Royal Purple. Any info would help.

I think this has been covered quite a bit. But from what i've heard it's awesome stuff. I'm a mobil 1 fan myself but i've heard this stuff is good. I plan on using it in my tranny and rearend when i service them.
Yes good stuff!!!
Do a search, there are lots of threads, w/ lots of users, and a few bashers too.

Could you notice a difference in power from switching to all royal purple? I heard it actually helps gain some HP?
No. That's not why I use it. My motivation is protection and longevity.
It's going to be pretty tough to feel 8 HP difference in one of these cars.
I also run it in the trans(SyncroMax) and diff(MaxGear).
+1. Even though the speed channel did technicially prove there is a gain from it, thats not the reason anyone should buy it.
I recently added it in my car. I do notice that it runs slightly smoother, but like Jimmysidecarr said, I do it for the long run, and to know that I'm running good quality oil in my engine. (and because I can't stand giving exxon mobile my money whatsoever.)
Pricier, yes. Worth it? I'd say so.
Thanks for the info guys!!!!!!!!
used it on my car, and it feels like it revs a lot smoother. great stuff!
Cheapest place on the web and free shipping too: http://www.corvetteguys.com/royalpurple-5w30-motor-oil.html
good find
ya HP tv on spike did it too. gained like 6-8hp on the dyno
its great stuff but expensive... so its pretty much up to preference
