i use royal purple, they did a full write up in Dsport, and it had nice gains. AMSoil is another that I use in my 2006 Z06. evo is a D/D and AMSoil is not as easy to get my hands on.

Yeah, but the guy I replied to (laxplayer) lives in MD if I am not wrong.
Moreover it is always better to have say 5W40 that 10W30 for sake of cold starts, not the oil properties itself though and for your turbine protection.

My turbo will be just fine Honestly, people put way too much thought into engine oil. Pick the quality brand of your choice and choose the viscosity that matches your climate.
My old IX is at 60k miles and has been modified and running high-boost since it was nearly new and the stock turbo is still perfect. It's seen plenty of autocross and now track duty with the new owner too. The engine has seen nothing but Mobil 1 10W-30.

Transmission oil question. Apparently Redline has recently (Sept 2010) released a new MT-85 transmission fluid. I wonder if using this alone might be superior to the redline cocktail....
Also, are there any retail outlets that sell redline tranny fluid? I've been to O'reilly's Autozone and can't seem to find it....
