if you live somewhere that is cold and you leave your car outside, id say go with 5w30. If you live in southern Cali and its not that cold, and when you park your car in the garage, use 10w30. There is another thread about oil on the forums. I am using Mobil One 10w30 dino oil with an STP oil filter. It runs great and my oil is not black and dirty, this is after 3500 miles. Usually when your oil turns black and dirty, its that you need to change your oil. Not because you are constantly revving your engine. If you like to rev it and keep it in high rpms constantly, use higher viscosity. Dont buy into that VR1 racing motor oil from Valvoline or any other "racing oil" just buy 20w50 oil as it is cheaper and should be the same thing.
