What weight oil do you suggest for a high hp evo in the winter?
Ok, so its time to do my winter oil change and Im not really sure what weight oil to go with. I have a 700hp evo 9 thats on e85. Its a weekend car and probably wont be driven much in the winter. Please let me know what everyone suggests. Thanks!
I don't exactly have a "high hp" evo but I run 10W30 in the summer and this winter I'll use 5W-30. last winter I had stayed with 10W-30 and it was a bit rough cold-starting at -30° C.

how do you make that work in winter ? when is minus 20C ?
the oil will be verry heav fore the oil pump , so that the oil can make its way into the motor , does actely her the motor big time if its not getting the right lubering in the few first secons ,
if you dont live in a place whare its 20 plus *C 365 days a year ?
