Message	Noticed a significant change in how smooth my motor was after switching over to the T6. Although, one thing to note is that it is not a true synthetic - it is actually mineral oil based. Group 3 oil, I believe. The non synthetic does not bother me. An oil that runs extremely well with our engines and it is one of the cheapest out there, I'll take it.
