Well, WESTi, up here in Canada, we only use Zero Weight oil in the winter, because it's too light for the summer.

C'mon guys, 5W30 is the dealership recommend, so stick with that. If you are searching for 2-3 HP from oil, then spend 12$ per quart for Royal Purple.

hehe you are right but once the two oils are wrmed up they should be the same weight. it's just thinner in the cold, the zero is going to provide too little protection on morning start ups uless it's really cold out like lets say as cold as it gets in germany....

lol you guys are funny. THe 0 is the weight it is when its cold. Seeing as it never gets close to freezing around here it doesnt even matter. THe 30 is the weight at normal operating temperature which is the same as the 5 w 30. Read before you criticize. oh and by the way tons of people on this forum, the evo forum, and even the charger forums use this oil. I put it in 3 thousand miles ago and havnt burnt a drop.
