I read about a test conducted a few months back and one of the performance mags covered it? I can't remember which one it was?
But a test was done with a few different oils to find out what oil would work best with nitrous motors. Interesting results where found. To make a long story short the one oil that resisted detonation the best and made great power was Royal Purpal. I my self have never used Royal Purpal before in any of my nitrous engines but have though about possibly trying it? I use currently Valvoline VR Racing oil.
If I remember what magazine it was I will post the issue.
