What is the BEST motor oil to use for an every day street vehicle that I use for occasional racing?

B Dizzle asked:


I have a 2000 Honda Civic SI with 170,000 miles and I currently use Castrol Syntec 5w 30. I have DC 4 to 1 headers w/ DC full back cat exhaust, AEM V2 air intake, Nology hot wires w/ Nology silver 1 plugs, and I’m soon going to be hooking up my MSD sports compact ignition w/ MSD cap and rotor. I have a friend telling me to use Royal Purple but I want the best application for my type of driving. As you can tell I drive alot and I want an oil that gives me the most power for both uses (regular driving and racing) so some advice would be greatly appreciated! THX

    The royal purple is very popular if it was newer engine you dont mind few leaks in your old gaskets.
    The royal purple is very good if it was newer engine you could use 1550 syn.
