castrol Syntec 5w30 is what i use. it says use 5w30 in the instruction manual. synthetic oil has smaller molecules or something so it is a better lubricant and wont break down like normal oil. i couldnt tell u either way if its actually better, but then again, is the extra 5 bucks for the synthetic oil really that bad? to tell u the truth i picked catrol syntec cuz it has a really cool bottle and i heard valvoline was not the best oil. so yea synthetic is best. if u run ur car hard/ want performance go synthetic, if u just drive like a normal person take ur pick. synthetic is better but i dont think it makes that much of a difference, maybe preserve ur engine a lil longer.
