Maybe he is recommending 50 weight so he gets more business lmao. I feel like 40 weight provides plenty of lubrication. And like I said supposedly someone in middle east that drifts their M5 went with 60 weight and that only lasted about 3k miles before failure.

I have been thinking about getting the colder thermostat....haven't looked into how involved of an install it is though.
