One more question. Since I dont know if syntetic or regular oil was used in the car before. Should I add one of those oil cleaners before I add the syntec

Not necessary. You can switch between synthetic and non-synthetic. There's no black magic behind it. They even make a synthetic "blend". Don't listen to too many "old wives".

You might consider using the Honda OEM oil filter as the M1 filter has been known to back off.
One of my friends (altiain on this forum) had his back off at the track, leading to an engine fire. If yuo use another filter just make sure to use a filter lock.
