Personally I will stay with 0w20 and run a better quality oil like eneos sustina.

As you said do whatever you want. Subaru and Toyota SUGGEST 5w-30 though for severe usage which likely means their experience (instead of book based training by a corporate trainer) matched my own data that we see low oil pressure with 0w-20, especially when warm and at high RPM. 0w-20 is great for Eco though. Based on my data alone my car will never see 0w-20 again.
