andy why so much cold viscosity?
I used 20w50 because everybody do.....but I changed it to 10w40 because oil pressure looked deam high for me.....it was 3bar before turbo on idle with hot engine and with 10w40 its about 2,2 bar

Thats not much of an argument.
If you are that outspoken about it, I would have expected a more in-depth answer?

I wrote that we used castrol 10-60 synthetic on the circuit track . But for street and dragracing mineral works well
But everybody has his own experiance
