Found a few threads through search on here, no real definite answers though. Gonna do an oil change tomorrow and was wondering if sticking with the factory recommended 5w20 or going to something like 5w30 or 10w30. I'm at 600 HP to the wheels, but I don't beat on it or ever track it. I was thinking 5w30 but wanted some opinions. Best bet probably to call VMP and see what they recommend.

5-30 is fine. Just make sure you use high quality oil filter. (AMSoil, RP or M1 EP)

Adding a blower doesn't mean much. Its how you drive the car and the environment you drive it in.

I use 10w-30.

Amsoil 10w-30 here. I change it once a year about 10,000 miles

I've switched to Amsoil 10-30 and will change at 10k miles I have noticed it doesn't consume this oil like it would with 5-20!

I ran Amsoil 5w 20 in my boosted car for about 2.5 years or so then switched to 5w50 once I went e85 no issues on either weight.
