Default what type of oil to use?

i have a fully built d16 top and bottom, pushing 16 lbs of boost.

break in oil is ready to come out, been 500 miles, i used partial synthetic 5w30 for that.

now that im ready for the full synthetic what should i use? im assuming 5w30 will work but whats the best? not talking brands here, just weight.

thx

I use castrol GTX 10w30 dino oil. I tried synthetic and didnt really care much for it. its just more $$$$. I guess It can make a difference with oil temps and breakdown.
