For me, it's synthetic. I use Royal Purple. It costs more, but I like the idea of better protection and longer oil change intervals. 3000 miles for dino, 5000 for synthetic.

It's a waste of money to change synthetic oils every 3k. But I mean, if you want to do that then more power to you.

^^ Turbo? haha . I mean you could but I don't see the need to if you're N/A. Don't want to turn this into a argument so I'll just leave my opinion and leave it at that.
