Forged pistons + royal purple = quieter

My engine with mobil1 sounds like a sewing machine. The synerlec in the royal purple is like a grease additive that helps quiet the engine down

For my car it not only increased runner length but keeps the air going in cooler, which increases my hp and tq. I could definitely tell a difference.
