Just put some Royal Purple... my impressions

I did an oil-change today and put some 5W-30 Royal Purple in there..

Car idles MUCH smoother... revs much smoother. Doesn't feel like any top-end hp gain, but feels torquier!

Allmotor did you say that there is a lightweight flywheel for our cars. I would be really interested in that.Let me know if you have anymore details.

Every tried Mobil 1, how does it compare?
Someone said that Royal Purple fixed some strange noise during cold starts... don't know if its true....
I'll be trying Royal Purple next time
