Re: [DML] An oil question On Turbos

I have always used synthetic in my turbo'd cars. 
Usually Mobil 1, but Castrol Syntec on a few
ocassions.  I've put almost 100,000 miles on this car
and have had the turbo gasket/seals replaced twice. 
One in conjuntion with a rebuild.  I burn NO oil; ie.,
I have never had to add oil between changes.  I
typically change at 3,000 miles though I have, on long
trips, gone as far as 4,000 miles.

I have used 10W-30, 15W-50 and next spring I am
leaning towards 0W-40.
