I use it. I had a oil consumption issue, when I was running Royal Purple synthetic, which is the same oil I blew my engine on. Since the built block, and using Amsoil, I have not had any issues, and it improves your fuel mileage as well.

Yep, we've use it on all of our cars. Not changing to anything else after this oil. Motul is also very expensive but I've only used their Brake Fluid. I would stick with Mobil 1 if its free. I like that oil a lot but since we carry Amsoil, we not only use it but recommend it to all of our customers.

Yep, it certainly improves the gas mileage. seen it on all of the cars we've put the oil in. I liked Royal Purple but it broke down WAY too quick for the heat that my engine was putting out.

+1 royal purple runs like poo in the VQ

i run 5w-30 amsoil during the summer months and currently running the German Castrol 0w-30 for the winter months....the 0w-30 is amazing stuff, improves your gas mileage like crazy and the VQ loves it
