S/C Guys,

What interval are you changing your oil and what Brand/weight are you using?

I changed mine with about 2k - 2.5k miles and it was not purdy.

I'm not a guy, but I'll answer you anyways.

The oil is changed every 3k miles with Mobil 1 Synthetic 5W30. I've pushed over 4k miles and it wasn't too bad.

Why 5W30? Im not SC'd yet and am running 10W30...when I have it installed should I have it changed to 5W30? What does that improve/make last longer?

Thanks,

Kirk
