Anyways, I prepaid maintenance like an herb, so I have 4 more oil changes by the dealer. Should I just let them put in the Subaru 0w-20 synthetic with a Subaru filter or bring some Motul Eco Lite Ow-20 as that is in it now; courtesy of the shop that filled it after the Edelbrock install? I figure Subaru's synthetic is just fine with 3k oil change intervals.

I may also ask about switching to 5w-30 but at I have seen @CSG Mike say over-and-over, if you have an oil cooler, just run ow-20 for DD'ing.

FWIW 246whp and 220ft/lbs tq
If your oil temps are well in check, 0W20 is fine. 30 weight for margin is okay, and I'm fairly certain MPG isn't your main concern if you're boosted!
