I am using the 0w-30 turbo oil. Not only did I notice a lower temp in the engine but I received a slight power increase. I have about 7000 miles on the oil right now and by looking at the oil it still looks new. In a month or so I\'ll do my filter change and I\'ll send off for an oil analysis. Was using Mobil 1 and now will never go back.

That person discovered something obvious to educated/professional people, I am an engineer (not terribly old [35] but earned a reputation) and trust only numbers, NOT commercial hype from Mobil and other liars.
Mobil1 is NOT number1, it';s number 3 after Synlube and AMSOIL, AMSOIL is the ONLY way to go for "normal" end-users, SynLube is a very esoteric company whose oil is in NASA planetary vehicles, etc, it's permanent (150-200K miles), but speaking of normal synthetic fluids AMSOIL beats everyone including Mobil1 in TBN, high-temperature/heavy-duty/ful efficiency, etc, etc. parameters, and of course ball-bearing test, AMSOIL is a small company and as often happens small little-knows make a superior product but unable to penetrate thick stupid consumers skulls.
P.S. I do NOt work for AMSOIL, I am with a defense/governement fiberoptics/microwave satellite comm company, so no interest in promoting other than desire to ask people search the Web and see for yourself ho wmany ENGINEERS are pro-AMSOIL amd how many idiots believe Mobil1 commercial lies. Mobil1 is good, in fact in top 3, but still not as perfect as AMSOIL.
I used to be a skeptic and allowed anything dealer/manufacturer specified, but ball-bearing/TBN/etc testing and a grpowing AMSOIl army of consumers convinvced me to try, well i am happy to have done it finally replaced not only oil but also Xmission fluid, and oil filter with AMSOIL's nanofiber filter, however xmission filter amsoil i snot offering from itself but from Wicks sold at Amsoil's website, etc, etc
So from skeptic I transfpormed unexpectedly, didn't know this would happen to me? I even now preach AMSOIl at work to serious software/design engineers and one already confirmed his truck benefited from it versus, any other oil e.g. Mobil's "best" synth, Royal, Castrol, whatever - nothing comes close ot AMSOIL ,my transmission Amsoil fluid is rted at 900+ degrees, now fule economy of course raised when BOTH oil and filter are AMSOIl and xmission fluid, I can go on forever and here's why:
I CARE about environment as much as about my own little thing, so any company that selss a 25-K mile oil that doesn't pollute already filthy environement every 3-5K miles as ordinary junk oils or doesn't breakdown as Mobil1 at the same load/temeparature/miles, any such company desreves a praise.

Hey im not trying to rate this product. I just want to ask Wstepler if you actually have a turbo or is it safe to use this weight on non-turbo applications?

I have been using amsoil for many years now. Been sponsored by them for a year and would like to say, at 1st thinking there oil would last for a year without changing was perposterous, however even at 10,000 miles with the oil it looks brand new. Plus only changing the oil once ever 11/12 mo. saves me time and money...not to mention more horsepower

Love this product. Use it on all of our cars, now that we carry it. we've seen an improvement in not only the performance of the cars but also on their gas mileages. The interval between changing the oil also has increased in terms of miles thus not having to spend much time on oil changes and doing so frequently.
