Yeah. I'm moving to synthetic soon - I went to semisynthetic to get out all the supposed sludge hiding somewhere because I used pennzoil.
The major concern people have is that going from regular to synthetic is blah blah plugging up your oil filter with crud so you have no oil flow, and that seals will swell, then shrink because of the different type of oil.
I will point out that most of my oil consumption (all of it if I don't ride my turbo hard) disappeared when I went to semi-syn.
