I guess he has money to burn. I'd rather waste my money on parts that actually make my car faster, hookers, and drugs. Fucking amateurs. :

Yeah, you were buring some raw oil and it was creating thick deposits on the pistons.....

Good ol 10w-30, 5w-20 is wayy to thin, even Honda engineers hate it, but had to put it on to meet cafe standards for ULEV3

FYI, I tried M1 5w-30 and seemed like there is more piston slap on startup.

Add a oil pressure gauge and watch your oil pressure during hot idle, it will scare the shiz out of you.......

Syn oil seems to thin out alot more that conventional with heat.

Synthetic oil historically has had temperature thinning issues all the way back to WWII when Germany first tried using it in thier fighter aircraft engines.
