    It all really depends on climate, driving conditions, etc...

    I say a high weight oil is good

            I'll link you to my Honda tech thread but long story short, rotella t5 it's 10 30 oil for turbo desil. It protects against wear, real good oil.

              Forced Induction - Stock Turbo GSR what oil? (searched) - Stock turbo Gsr at idle my pressure is about 11psi on 10 30 non syn. I'm looking for a straight answer on what oil to run I've searched on here seeing alot of people running mobile1 15 50. I was told to never run syn. What are you guys running for oil? Summer...

                penziol 5/30 full synthetic but any synthetic takes well to shearing and heat and cleans way better and turbos cause heat and shearing and causese sludge and penzoil is one the the top synthetics out there and is sae certified unlike royal purple its only ment for street use not everyday driving penzoil and a wix filter will do the job

                    Turbo cars run at hotter temps which breaks up oil making it thin, the service Manuel is not written for a turbo car it's written for a bone stock motor, once oil heats up it thins out.....

                          i use M1 15w50 from april to october and 5w40 full syn from nov to march... that is if i can drive the car and its not broken in some way lol

                          but for a honda with vtec... stick with the 5w30 or 5w40 or (10w30 or 10w40 if you cant get a hold of the 5w)
