I did switch to full synthetic at the first oil change (had the engine flushed also).

So, I'm a bit over 20k miles and am not burning any oil between changes (4500 - 5000 miles between). I'm pretty happy with the results so far and am looking to go 150k plus on this engine, before I have it torn down and rebuilt.

Also, hoping for good weather.

Saw a Spa in Vancouver yesterday with this HUGE wing hanging off the trunk. It was out over the bumper, not much over the trunk. Can't say that I was impressed with the look.

This is similar to my plan... Glad to hear no oil burn... I wonder if you also have tthe updated oil jet banjo bolts??? It can be confirmed by VIN.

Gotta love those huge a$$ wings reminds me of a shopping cart.

Price out the door is $30,500.... I found one in south dakota for $29,999 but shipping was $800 so im saving a little bit and getting it local...

I've seen that S with the huge ass wing quite a few times. I'm pretty sure it's someones daily driver.

Ok, doesn't look like that is an issue for me. Seems to be '02 and earlier.
