    Hi
    For everyone using royal purple how often are you changing your oil? I was at a conference and the royal purple rep there said I should be able to get 10000 miles using royal purple. he's never owned a wrx so I'd like to know what guys are really getting.

    Currently I'm using valvo and changing around every 3000 miles.

    Thanks!

    A lot of those long distance between oil change oils seem like a great deal but I dont think they consider turbo model cars to much. I know turbo's like fresh clean oil, not sure Id want 10,000 mile oil feeding my turbo. I go 4K on mobil one. Just over the 3,750 recommended change interval.

    Thanks for the replies. I think I'll stick with what I'm doing. I agree with the turbo comment I don't believe the guy was considering turbos etc. Thanks guys
