Oil question for boost application

What type of oil do you guys use for you boosted engines? I plan on buying a replacement engine and boosting it by mid summer. Do you still recommend using the 5w30 that Honda states or should I switch to a synthetic type(Lucas or Royal purple)?

Royal Purple or Mobile1 fully synthetic is what I suggest (and used). During the colder seasons I was running 5w30 and 10w30 for the warmer times of the year.
