gonna throw my 2c in here, driving a 2nd gen with 330k on original engine (and original timing guides till 2 years ago) i personally use M1 HM 5-30 in my X, but imo more important than the oil choice, as long as its a name brand syn that meets requirements for all the newest low spd preignition stuff and what not, is the filter choice. much more variation there imo, compare stp to fomoco for example, or M1. there aint no comparing the two. we get too caught up in the fluid itself, but we overlook the stuff that actually takes it out of circulation. also more important is the OCI, i do 3k OCI on all the vehicles. especially more important for the turbo vehicles, as the tolerances are so minute, and also they need more protection as theu are under more stress than them ole v8s, and to keep it from getting acidic. all just my views. imo, want more protection? try motorkote, it leaves this nice slick film, and it reduces friction on the cold start. its like its almost fused to the metal, its interesting. when its running, theres not much wear, as new oils have good lubricating proterty, its just the dry start. though manufacturers over use the 98% of wear occurrs at start up thing though. but i must say the motorkote seems to work?
TLDR: OCI/filter>name brand oil choice
