Hello!
I’ve got a turbocharged car that I use as my daily driver. I’m planning to attend a few HPDE track days events. I normally follow the maintenance minder on the car or until it hits ~13000 km/1 year. My car doesn’t suffer from fuel dilution.
Considering I’ll be tracking the car and it’s a bit harder on the oil, I figured I’d switch to an oil with a longer service life, like Mobil 1 EP. Up here in Canada we only get the 5 quart bottles of M1 EP 0w20. 1 quart bottles of M1 0w20 are all AFE.
Do you think it’s worth buying two big jugs of EP, or 5 quart EP + topping the last 600ml with AFE? By my calculations I’d have a ratio of 88% EP and 12% AFE (5.7 quart total)
I plan to get an oil analysis after this change.
