Default Info on Royal Purple Products

I'm thinkin about changing over to all RP stuff in my `05`stang GT come next Spring. I like what i read about RP products but value opinions of guys/gals that already use it. Will be doin the oil, manual trans, brake, power steering, and differential fluids. Any feedback, good or bad would be very much appreciated.
Thanks.

I'm using Mobile1 in the motor and rear and RP in the trans. Ps and Brake fluids haven't been changed yet. Although Amsoil is some pertty good stuff too. I use it in my H-Ds and works great. Stlwagon uses Amsoil.

I've been using RP in my street/track for the last two seasons. I put on about 5K miles over that time frame. A lot of it is track use, and I really beat on that engine. I don't baby it at all. The low oil pressure light has come on more than once.

I took the engine apart this month for an overhaul. The inside was really clean. The cylinder walls still had the hone marks, and no ridge. The bearings looked great.

I'll continue to use RP.
