Oil recommendation- New owner
Hi everyone,
I'm the new owner of RS Tuning 993 Turbo owned previously by "MOD500". I'm located in Asia, much warmer with 90+ Fahrenheit and 90% humidity and there're not much oil brand selections. If I may get some input what oil grade and brand should I get for this set-up?
Thanks,
S

^^^^ This ^^^^ For our Turbos, zinc and (turbo) heat resistance drive the oil choice for longevity of motor, may sacrifice some on CAT life span, but much cheaper to replace CATs then motor.

V Twin
Welcome!
I think the preferred is as stated Mobil 1 V - Twin 20 W - 50.
Likely other brands - surely other brands.
Other members will jump in if I am mistaken.??
Hopefully u can find this online, if not local?
Sells about $8 - $10 US Retail per Litre OR in 6 jug case - typically.
If need be, buy a Box - 24 if possible.
Incidentally this is the Normally Aspirated Forum, not Turbo But there are many knowledgeable owners herein who will join in to assist.
FYI> The fellows here like to see a car pic on first threads
Have a Good day Eh !
