What do you mean by that? Once you use dyno you can't go back to syntec? eek

Use 5w30 weight. Go syntec if you can. Using a higher weight is only useful for cars with:

1) leaks from gaskets
2) Turbo'd vehicles

For our cars it will most likely slow your acceleration and cut back on your gas mileage. smile

Anyone ever tried that Z-MAX oil additive stuff? think it works? the way they advertise it scientifically it looks like it might not be just BS
