The guy in the white Evo couldn't drive worth sh**, so he lost. The blue Evo was very nice, but it looks like the white STi driver was just a little better at autox. Pretty cheesy but entertaining.

I'm sure there has to be some, but I really don't know of any sports car that comes with a 2.0L v6.... and are there even cars sold in the US that's a v4??!?

I emailed Royal Purple about the "V6 and V4" thing.

I am awaiting a response from them.

Forum Wars is a marketing campaign. The only thing royal purple does is pay the bills and slap their name on it. Everything else is an outsider production company.

LOL well they're getting the mail anyways.

I would never run Royal Purple, it doesn't even meet API SM ratings. (And even though my car can take it) The new API standard is SN, but I doubt they've updated it. In newer vehicles, it's not recommended to run an API SL, which is what Royal Purple is rated.

EDIT: I just did a little reading, the lower API rating is because of the required reduction of additives in the newer API ratings... or something like that. Go to BITOG for more info (they're oil experts).
