    Too bad the ONE spec that matters most for turbo/supercharged engines isn't listed. That would be HTHS.

    The second most important (IMO) would be VI followed by flash point.

    That's obviously when comparing oils of the same viscosity.

      I use Mobil 1 5w-30 in mine and it still looks good after running it on road courses on 100 degree days. Change it every 3k regardless.

          Seems like Amsoil and Mobile1 are the only good choices.

            IMO, most synthetics would be OK for supercharged engines. Don't know about turbo's.

                That's because AMSOIL and Mobil1 (along with RP and RL) are the only REAL synthetics.



                That's why I've been using AMSOIL and selling it for 6 years now. It's a good product.
