There is no need to use expensive synthetic oils in motors in my opinion. To me you are just wasting money. I use standard Mobil1 5w30 in my engine and have had no problems what so ever. My changing intervals are every 2,000 miles and I have torn down 3 different engines using this exact motor oil and noticed no abnormally excessive wear.

Opsi i agreee with u man... synthetic oils were designed to reduce manitence cost go down for dealerships and customers... i have talked alot of racers...i used amsoil in my gokart but that was different story.. tell me when u make 4.5 times the normal amount of power out of the same displacement of the engine... then u can talk about oils... but use 5w-30 or 10w-30... indy cars dont even use synthetic oils nor nascar.... they are for econimic reason.... period....reduce costs...
