    synthetic oil good idea ?

    i change my oil pretty often, well under 1000miles normally, so its basicly new all the time. is synthetic oil good or bad for our blowers ? your thoughts !

    btw, i run a small B&M oil cooler just for the blower.

    I run Mobil1 Synthetic. Before I installed it I called Vortech and asked what they suggested and they said to run what I ran before I got the blower. I'm not sure how much difference it would make in a blown car.

    Hmmm

    I always ran Mobil One in my blown car, I think it works great. Some guys who have tried to run it, they start leaking oil. The two I know went back to regular oil and the leaks stop.

    Just like everything else, people have their preferences, but yeah I like Royal Purple best.
