Actually fc can be related to how you break in your engine. You break in your engine gently then fc sure teruk la piston rings didt seat properly, best way is to whack the engine nicely.
haha..ok...share about how i "break in" my car, maybe it helps other users:
when below 200km mileage, i never step more than 3krpm
then before doing first service (after first 200km mileage until 999km), i rev it till 4k or 5k rpm..but not often. Example, suddenly rev it and then slow down.
then after 1k services, rev as many as u like, but never red line..
p/s: just my own experiece, i don responsible for any defects of your engine after u try it.
i think go up genting also "works" for breaking in engine, i noticed my car more smooth after went up to genting. but that time my mileage was around 5k mileage la..

I normally rev 2k then change my gear. I try not to rev too much coz engine very noisy. Unless go up hill then need rev more.
Now I using 5w30 full sync should have better fc but engine sound abit louder. When I start my car in morning, d car feel very light & smooth. Can feel the different when using 10w40.

For those normal driver not rev too much, go try 5w30 maybe u will like it.

5w30 wont too thin meh?
but u use fully syn ah, i think should be ok...cos better and more protection.
i think i wont use 5-30, cos i like to rev
