Thinking of doing Mobil 1 0W-30

Mobil 1 has this fuel economy oil. They say 2% improvement. 2% of 25mpg is .5mpg. Big deal right?...yea...but its kind of a game for me to see how I can get my mpg to go...i know..then why did you buy a 328HP G! LOL...I like power and fuel economy.

SO..anyone SKEERED to put this oil in the VQ37HR?

On a side note..if it is true...it probably would free up a few HP.

^^^^^ ahhh now I get it. How about butting that in your sig. lol.


As for the oil I would not be scared to use it but I doubt you will be able to see any differance in MPG. I am only guess =ing though. BUt if you do change over. Keep some good records and let us know how it turnes out.

Have noticed no loss lowend and pure power after 3000 rpm. I expect to see some low end power drop once I put the intakes on. BUt I am hoping I can get a Cobb tune by then to take care of that.
