Change to synthetic? 700 1989

As a follow-up to the previous oil question. Is it advisable to change to oil from conventional to synthetic on a car with 251k? even though synthetic may be better in a turbo? I have recently aquired an 89 745 Tic and the P.O. used Castrol GTX, and I was thinking of changing to Mobil 1, but we discussed that it may not be advisable to change an oil that has worked so well for so many years, any thoughts. What about changing from a fram to Mann filter with same oil. Thanks -
