It should be normally when you change the oil in your car your giving it back its performance in horsepower cause your changing it from the old oil. Hence giving you back the horsepower that you lost from the dirty oil that was robbing it. Its your car tellin you thanks it really needed that whens the last time you changed it.
Aslo check around the area just incase dont wana second guess yourself yaknow. BUt didnt you notice a big difference in the oil change like an added extra kick.

i had an oil change like 2weeks ago when i got the turbo in so it was new
the car feels alot better and it spools alot faster it just makes some noises that i didn't expect
even the spooling is alot louder too

I really recommend going with the Mobil1 15w40 instead I think you'll agree after you make the switch

Would you mind explaining the pros and cons of a thicker oil? I felt a noticeable difference going from 5w30 to synthetic 10w30, I burn far less oil and the car just seems to drive smoother, can I expect similar gains switching to synth 15w40 in a moderate climate on a mildly boosted LS(Seattle weather and 7 PSI on a T3/T04E)?
Thanks!

the turbo creates so much more heat that the oil thins out more than normal so a lower viscosity, heavier weight oil is better to use.

makes sense to me... same idea as recommending different oils for different climates, the turbo related heat just makes it the damn sahara under our hood.. thanks
