My initial thought was... Blackstone results show that using 0w40 has shown less wear. Especially on forced induction. But, then I thought about the gallery gasket issue. Maybe using 0w40 was bumping up the oil pressure when there was a failing/failed gallery gasket and thus... seeing less metals in the oil. Anywhooo... was a thought I had.

I have to warm up my car for 10-15 minutes before I can go out driving... oil pressure at idle is at 120psi with 0w40.

My oil pressure cold at idle with Mobile 1, 0w40 is between 105 and 110. Warm, it's around 35.
