A 5w50 is also good. And of course, install our E2-X catchcan system with cleanside to keep that oil clean as possible, and while you have the intake manifold off, search for the intake valve cleaning threads on here and do the same. You wont believe the difference it makes to get 15-20 HP back.

Is an oil that thick in viscosity good though? I thought the whole point in using an oil that's thin was for the components in the VVT system.
