Hey all. I drive my AP1 Honda S2000 about 2-3k miles per year on the street. I am competitive in autocross (~10 events) and run a 3-4 track days a year in the car. On track days I typuically see the oil temperatures around 260F, sometimes above 280F. Currently I am running 4qt Mobil 1 0w-40 and 1 qt Mobil 1 15w-50. My oil pressure is just a few PSI below the service manual values at idle and 3,000 RPM at 176F oil temp. I am 33 PSI at idle, specification is 36 PSI. I am 83 PSI at 3,000 RPM, specification is 85 PSI. I obviously have an oil pressure and temperature gauge. The engine has 137k miles on it and many many sessions of track days and autocross. Despite all this, the engine burns very little oil, which is surpising for a F20C that gets a frequent workout and is higher mileage. I race with some of the HART guys (Honda of America Racing Team), and the engineering team recommends Redline oils and run them in all of their cars. I want to hear what BITOG thinks!
What oil and filter do you recommend for this type of application & vehicle?
