What is the best oil to use for the Scion tC that is a non-turbo & is a daily driver ?

After looking @ the www.royalpurple.com video they said you will get better MPG & also a small horse power gain on any car , truck or SUV.

So is this true ?

Is Amsoil better?

Does anyone have any other suggestions for better MPG or performance?

 

I have read good things about the royal purple

not heard anything bout amsoil just do a little more research ask people with turbo's they have probably done a good bit of research to protect thier investment

 

havent heard nething bout amsoil as well, good things about royal

 

ive ran mobile1 for about 3 oil changed (est 4k miles each) and currently on my second royal purple oil change (just changed it last week). honestly i feel as royal purple smooths out my engine a bit. if that makes sence? it seems smoother, nothing more than that. of course i have no clue on the HP but my MPG's actually have gained a bit. I used to get about 260-70 miles/ fill up. the past 4-5 fill ups ive been in the 270-85/ fill up. i guess its the oil because i havent done nothing different. same routes to work and back, never really pushing the car?

 

I like Castrol Syntec. I would get Royal Purple but I don't feel like forking over the extra money for how much i already pay with the Castrol. Besides, Castrol has those really cool bottles.

 

I was running Royal Purple in my 2001 Honda CR-V & I did notice that the car ran a bit more quite & also I did see a small 3-5 MPG increase & that is on high way miles.

I wonder if Royal Purple is the answer I am seeking I will do some more research & post up my finds also please keep the replys coming

good video from SEMA 2007

 

that video ^ sells me on it lol

 

non turbo, shouldnt have problem with those full synthetic.. just get the cheaper one... even natural oil is good enough, just keep your oil change on time.. you should still do even with full synthetics

redline, royal purple, amsoil, motul are good

 

I just wanted to say that with what i have read on here and with what i had available i just changed to mobil 1 syn. and royal purple 75W-90 in my 5 spd and it is night and day. My car runs 10 degrees cooler, runs smoother, revs quicker and pulls harder. I can't believe the difference. it honestly feels like 10 more horse power at least by my butt dyno.

 

When I was using Royal Purple on my Honda CR-V I did notice a slight gains & also the CR-V did run a bit cooler

I will be buying Royal Purple & a K&N oil filter on my next Oil change & I will keep a close eye on how Royal Purple runs VS what ever Toyota puts in the tC

 

i would opt for an OEM toyota oil filter. their the best and made for the tC. i switched from mobil1 oil filter when i had mobil1 oil. its just my .02

 

i just change my oil last week with royal purple at stanton autobacs. i feel the difference. i totally feel the difference when the rpm goes up and it feels a lot smoother[/quote]

 

good morning bump

 

mobil 1

 

+1 Full synthetic, widely available, and WalMart has it in the big 5-qt jugs for like $20-22. Complete oil change for under $30, which is what Advance/AutoZone say is their 'sale price' once or twice a year.

 

LOLZ PENNZOIL IS THE BEST!

 

Pennzoil..Really?? I always heard it was not so good. I have Royal Purple and honestly i dont feel any gain but i seem to get a lil bit better mpg. I think I am gonna take my car in though it seems to be idling a lil rough. I used to not hear my engine at idle it was so quite now i do and i know the intake dont do it cause it was quite when i had my CAI on before. It kinda has a lub-lub lub-lub not to loud but if you listen you can hear it.

 

some dont like royal purple coz its too thin compared to other full synthetic with same grade.. im only gonna run it for like 2-3 oil changes

 

Mobil 1 FTW
