I have heard some of the boosted guys running m1 0w-40 and having success with it. Looking at the UOA's I would def run it over Royal Purple, but as I said check out the thread and draw your own conclusions.

I am running German Castrol 0w-30 right now in my N/A Z on Resolute's advice and loving it.

Yea, I heard the German Castrol is suppose to be pretty good, but I never seen for sale anywhere.

When I switched from Syntec to Royal Purple, I noticed the engine running smoother after about 50 Miles are so. The Rev climbed with sure ease, the bad thing about the oil from what I understand and seen, is that is doesn't hold up as long.

If you are getting an oil light, take your beater out, get your Synthetic 40w oil, top it off at home, then drive down.

GOOD LUCK Bro!
