doesnt seem thick to me, ive been using M1 filters, no noticeable change in fuel economy, way less chain and valve noise, no change in performance that i saw. i still beat the crap out of it on weekends at the track and drive it to work daily 32 miles each way on the highway. after sending a few samples to blackstone labs and them only finding oil in my oil i think its doing the job.
