What oil would you suggest for a VTS turbo conversion that's used as a daily driver with the odd track day?
Hi

I would say a good 5w-40 would probably be the way to go, unless you are getting high (over 125C) oil temps, then a 10w-50 is the best choice.

Out of those, the best ones are the Fuchs/Silkolene Pro S, Millers CFS, Motul 300V, Redline and Gulf Competition. They are all really good oils and up to dealing with the harsh conditions of trackdays.

Cheers

Tim
