I would use 10w30 or 20w40. I hurd not to use anythign on turbo cars with a biggger than 20 difference in the first and last # of the oil weight.

10w40 or 15w40 Castrol Non-Syth is what I run. Never had any problem. I change it VERY regularly though!

I like that $0.88/qt stuff. It's oil. It gets hot, it gets dirty, you throw it away.
