[BiturboS4] Question re: 0W30 vs 5W50, both synthetic

[Step88]

Another consideration for using synthetic oils with turbos is that there
isn't the tendency for the oil to coke, as there is with dino oils.  This
shouldn't be a problem as long as there is a sufficient cool-down period,
but the added protection gives a little added peace of mind.
