Its a catch 22. There are still a lot of UOA's with high copper as well.
If you read the vvt noise thread I recommend watching the video with the Avo engineer.
I can say my FA20 runs better on the 0w20. The vvt noise is a lot lower than with 5w30. But I admit I am still concerned for long time rod bearing wear with 0w20 so I'm trying the 0w30 catterham mix next oil change.
