Which oil weight should i use? The normal that I have been using like a Castrol syntec 5W30 or are you supposed to change it for supercharded applications. This is a JRSC on a B16A2.

Thanks in advance for the help.

If your going to just insult then get the expletive off my post. Im here for help.

 

guess ill just leave it alone

 

have you went through an oil change supercharged yet?
did it use any oil?

 

Ive been burning off oil I was a quart low since my last oil change. Which was a couple months and within 5k miles

 

do a compression and a leakdown tesk. if both are good id say it wouldnt hurt to step up to a 10w30 weight oil

 

Not supercharge related, but force induction related. Some turbocharged guys still run 5w30. But me I'm running 10w40, just because I feel like it.

 

really depends on what type of clearances the engine runs.

 

try the "recommend oil page" at http://www.opieoils.co.uk and specify everything about your engine and what mods you have too. he'll suggest the best (full synthetic) oil weight to keep it in good shape

 

Yeah I'm w/ that other guy, I'd recommend running a slightly heavier oil (10w40) b/c of the FI there will be increased stress on things and a heavier weight oil can spend more time cooling things off....

 

Good Points thanks that what i needed Ill check that page out too JoeNg79

Syndacate thats a good point more too cool off things.


Thanks for the input everyone
