Hey there i need help on what oil i should run on my BB Fp Red ... What kind of oil do you guys run on this turbo Im thinking of running the VR1 10-30w but i wanna knw what you guys think please help me out .... Thanks

 

if your on e85 run Amsoil 10w-40 High zinc

If your on pump rotella will be fine

 

Im running 91/e-85

 

The preferred oils to use are on fp website... I use brad penn 20-50 year round

 

Heres exactly what FP recommends for their turbos.. http://store.forcedperformance.net/m...otor%20Oil.pdf

Im personally running VR1 10w30. Not a problem yet. I believe the best is Amsoil Dominator. Has the highest ppm of Zinc (1575ppm) and Phosphorus (1424ppm). VR1 is in the low 1100ppm for both zinc and phosphorus as an example.

 

Have you guys trued using the Vr1

 

Lol. I said I am, on a FP Black.

 

 

The valvoline VR1, are you guys running the synthetic or standard version? I think one is $6/qt .... the other is $12?

 

Brad Penn is what I've been using and won't look back.

 

I'm using VR1 20-50 on a FP BB RED. This was recommended from JMS in San Antonio. I only use e85. Oil is changed after every track day (monthly).
I have noticed that after the new turbo upgrade and using the VR1 oil my oil temp is up about 10 degrees to 192 on daily drives. Could be the turbo. Prior to the upgrade it was always Mobil 1 5-30

 

Which oil do you guys recomend if your car is mainly running on e85 ? I usually use amsoil dominator series or vr1 but just wondering if there's anything better to use with e85
