It's fine, and available at Wal Mart.

I used to use Royal Purple until some 350z race teams were repoting increased engine wear compared to other synthetics. Seems it may make slightly more power, but it wasnt protecting as good as others.

Every oil test, I've ever read, Royal Purple isn't very good.
