Default New to S2000- Alberta Canada

Hey all, I am new to The S2000 and new to Honda. I have a 1974 MGB and wanted something with a little more power and reliability.
Had the car only a week now, I went to check the oil and the filler cap says to use 10w-30. I am sure the previous owner told me he used 5W-20 synthetic.
I know my MGB uses ONLY 20w-50. Now am I wrong to keep the 5w-20 in her?

Welcome & congrats,

I little more power, i guess

As far as the oil, synthetic, yes, different weight (non 10W30) why?

Honda knows what is best for that engine.
