I dunno, in my turbo, i wont touch anything but Redline Synthetic...I 
have enough information downstairs in my garage on oils, (independent 
info btw) to really believe that redline is the best.  Just one example, 
redline's base stock is the same stock that they use for jet engine 
oils...no one else (at the time of printing) uses that same stock...i 
have heard that amsoil is the only other one that uses it now though...

later...
