Can I use synthetic oil in my Audi 80 to improve engine performance?

I have heard that switching to synthetic oil can improve the performance of my Audi 80's engine. Is this true and what are the benefits and risks?

Yes, switching to synthetic oil can improve engine performance in your Audi 80. Synthetic oil has a more consistent molecular makeup, resulting in better lubrication and reduced friction. This can lead to improved engine performance and potentially even increased horsepower.

But keep in mind that using synthetic oil in older models of Audi 80 may not yield noticeable performance benefits. It's best to consult with a trusted mechanic to assess the condition and needs of your specific engine.
