1000 miles is a good idea for the first oil change, most people change every 3,000 miles after that.

For your first oil change 1k miles is definetely reccomended. Also, don't use synthetic oil for the first 1k, use some petroleum based cheap-o crap to let everything seal correctly. Then use some good synthetic (5w-30, 10w-30, 10w-40) depending on your temperature operating range.

Mob one suppose to last as long as 10k miles

Since the factory puts in Mobile1 Synthetic from the start I don't see how this is possible.

I think First at Mitsubishi Factory they Test The motor and running motor for few hour then pass and sent to Oversea.

Depends on how much racing i do. Most of the time its just 5,000miles if i do a lot of racing then 3,000

I changed the first one at 1,000 miles and every 3,500 miles after that.

I change at 3k even though the manual recommends 5k. For harder driving conditions... change more often.

i just do it every 3k...that way it's easy enough to keep track.

my first oil change, i did it at 750 miles. then every 2500 miles i changed it. just cause i know that sometimes i'm a little hard on the car so why not change it a little bit earlier then 3000.
