motor oil question
I am building a new motor w/ turo & direct-port nos & I'm wondering what motor oil to use. Mobil1, Castrol Syntech, or what?
Also, what weight? I live in TN & it'll be parked outside in the winter.
Thanks for your suggestions!!!!

I would have to say Mobil 1 fully synthetic 5W-30, but if you could get your hands on Redline Oil, that's probably the best you can get. I'm no expert in this field, so this is just my opinion. I use Mobile 1 in my 6th gen. sedan

mobil-1:thumbup:
the main difference between store bought oil is additive packages. the cheap walmart stuff will do the job, but if your driving hard i would much rather use an oil with a superior additive package like mobil 1 has.
