I'm getting into changing my oil soon, heres the deal
I want to use 0W30 Synthetic OIL, some people say your car will be faster but you'll have to change the oil at around 2000-2500 miles.Right now i'm using 10W30(Don't ask why, it's a stupid thing I did) but I just want to know... Is it worth it? Will it damage the Engine? Will my car be faster? Which Filter is better TRD or FRAM??

The Oil is very thin so the Pistons move faster which means faster acc and more power output!! Thats what I think!

Amsoil makes 0-30w, I use, its their long life oil, you only need to change it once a year, along with their long life oil filters.
