    I am putting my first turbo kit in my 2000 GP. It is a T-67 turbo. What should I use for motor oil. I have spoken with a few different people about this. I have heard 5w30 up to 50 weight. Need to get this figured out so I can start the car and get it tuned before the snow starts to fly. Thanks guys

    Doesnt matter in my eyes. Conventional or synthetic should not matter and pick the weight you want. The internals of the motor never changed, all you did was add a turbo to make power.

    Aslong as the turbo see's oil, it will be happy.
