So who's running amsoil, fp red?
 
Well I've searched around and I've decided to be switching to amsoil 10w-30 I have a stock block but I'm running a fp red. I just wanted some feedback from amsoil user's with a red turbo stock motor

its uh...oil? there isn't much to say. everyone likes amsoil.

evo8john Dec 27, 2010 01:36 PM

running amsoil on a stock turbo. love it... took away the ticking Royal Purple was giving me and now the engine runs a little smoother.

JEP Dec 27, 2010 01:37 PM

brad penn ftw

Gary@MellonRacing Dec 27, 2010 03:22 PM

i used the amsoil on fp red at 28psi on pump (10w40 amsoil worked )

ta ace Dec 27, 2010 03:35 PM

talk to fp about there turbo oil recommendations

i was told to run 20w50 oil (brad penn 20w50)

because of higher levels or zinc, and phosfrous (sp)

to help elongate the life of the bearings in the turbo..

search there is a whole thread dedicated to thesubject..

i ran 20w50 brad penn little thicker but whatever i can do to help my turbo last longer i will

also i ran e85 at 26 psi no problems / shaft play

I use synthetic Rotella T 5w-40. It has a much higher ZDDP content than M1 and is inexpensive.

420at- I think ur rite that is why I'm asking who has been using amsoil because as I've searched it seems amsoil the rite way to go
