If your car is used tp synthetic, I would say keep running it. Also, got any pics of the engine bay?

synthetic is much better for the engine and blower, but often times boosted cars have a blowby problem with synthetic oil

Actually I bought the car from another guy, and I dont know what he was using in it. But I changed it to synthetic. I was wondering because is there any difference in the way the oil acts under the pressure of the blower or am I just crazy. unfortunately I dont have a pic.
