What Weight Oil W/Supercharger?

Kind of stupid question...but should I still be running 5w20 oil with the supercharger install? Should I be using thicker oil now? I know they mention about ATF fluid...but never say anything about motoroil that I saw?

Any suggestions? I need to go buy some and do a change today. Not sure if I need another weight or not? I seached and could not find anything about it. Maybe I am just missing it in the directions or something....

I have been using 5W20 for over 18K. It doesn't say anything in the instructions about switching oil, but it did say to change your ATF. Mine being a MT, I had already switched to GM. Maybe someone with more knowledge can chime in.

Cool...just stayed with what I had been using then. Just wondering if we needed something thicker for the sc application. Sounds like everybody else was under the same impression....use the same thing! Thanks guys!
