Overall it feels sluggish and slow.
I bought the oil in a box that had 6 quart bottles several months ago and had it stored in my garage. The box looked like it started to stain with oil. My friend said maybe the oil had thinned because of the heat in the garage over time? Live in Arizona.
Every time I've done an oil change I've actually been putting 6 full quarts (I think I saw it in a video) and this time I did about 5.5. Maybe it has something to do with that?
I'm thinking of just doing another 6 quart oil change to try to fix it.

Do you have any power mods?
Did you do
anything else to the engine when you changed the oil?
