Is basically an Amsoil related site...of course Amsoil would perform better than anything else there.

Dont get me wrong...Amsoil is very good shiznit but i dont think the site is unbiased.

^ in the states unless you have proven facts (evidence) you will be sued for deformation of character(product) so why should amsoil want to close themselves down

Where can this be bought???

Postby **Hook** » July 1st, 2008, 10:27 am

so they have this magical synthetic oil that lasts 25,000miles.....and the factors that contribute to sludge build-up (stop and go driving, prolonged periods of idling, short trips that don't allow your engine time to warm up, towing trailers or other, heavy loads, airborne dirt, fuel dilution, condensation, longer drain intervals) suddenly go away?

Postby **W2J** » July 1st, 2008, 10:36 am

I have proven time and time again why Amsoil for my application was always better. On my built engine (4G92) using Castrol, Mobile1, Royal Purple my oil Temps in Traffic would start to run very high this showed me that the oil was starting to thin out. The only one I tried that came close was Redline... If you choose to change your oil at 25,000k and be a ignoramas go ahead but for me my normal change don't matter what it was always at 4,000k's and on or before race day.

Great read W2J... Who is the distributor for amsoil?

Postby **Hook** » July 1st, 2008, 12:51 pm

so why would they claim a 25,000mi change interval and risk their own defamation?

Postby **Dave** » July 1st, 2008, 12:54 pm

W2J, this site IS an Amsoil-sponsored site.

But we aren't saying that the facts are false.......they are just...selective

Think about it, doesn't a Castrol-commerical always show the GTX/Syntec as being superior to other brands? It's selective facts that are being shown...come on...that should be obvious.

As for me....I used Amsoil Series 2000 for two oil "intervals" already, and I hated it. It's a good oil I guess, but I kept getting minor oil losses (about 1/4 of a quart) every 3 mths with hard / WOT driving / in-boost highway driving. Syntec/Syntec Blend/Royal Purple etc. (same visco) never had oil losses whatsoever....and still don't :wink:

I guess it comes down to how your car/application "likes" the oil :lol:

Other than that, try doing an Spectroscopic Oil Analysis of different oils that you use between oil changes......there's a company/lab in St. Augustine that does it. That's the best way to confirm.........

But do you really expect Amsoil to endorse the competitor ?

pugboy · Postby **pugboy** » July 4th, 2008, 8:49 am

somebody should do some dyno tests and check temps etc
it will settle all the marketing bull
