Now it's running AMSOIL synth...

Notice an improvement with the switch?

I'll stick with my suggestion.


Walmart: Rotella TP 15w-40 @ $14
Advanceauto: Purolator gold filter @ $7.

You can't lose.

You'll have to shop around on the T6. I've seen it range from $20 (walmart) to $27 (auto parts stores). I got real luckly and got a shit load for $15 a pop.


Find your cross reference. *edit* Suzuki pulls a dick move on their filter threads so no cross reference for you.

Honesty i cant tell tye difference between dino and syn. People that say they feel a difference are usually full of it or its a mental thing. I doubt my vfr gained more than 1hp switching.

Our engines arent that tight if theyre using 40 oil.
