What kind of oil?

Guys,
Just curious as to what type oil I should put in my 95 Evo 3? Ive seen guys here use 20w 50 Valvoline oil? Should I be using this heavy weight oil? OR should I stick to a 10w 30 based oil. Car is mostly stock with bpu upgrades (Boost controller,Safc,intake exhaust,)

You are going to get a lot of opinions ranging from 0w20 to 20w50 and each and everyone of those people are going to swear they are correct.

My shop recommends 20w50 but, because I'm unnecessarily rebellious, I go with 5w30 during the winter and Rotella T6 5w40 in the warmer months.

If you have a shop that works on your car or knows 4G63's ask them what they think.
