I was at the local speedway and a guy suggested it to me.
Its only 15 bucks for 5 quarts.
He has a 9 sec turbo mustang sooooooo
Just wondering on any opinions. ???

I'd use it. I used regular Rotella T to break my engine in actually.

I've been running the Rotella synthetic 5w-40 in my daily driver Saab 900 turbo and all seems fine. It's on it's second oil change with the Rotella and I've been boosting around 15psi. The car seems happy (for something shaped like a shoe) so I'll probably stick to using it.
