My stuff gets castrol GTX. In my opinion, as long as you change your oil every 3k and use a decent oil and filter, you don't need anything more than dino oil. I don't understand why people feel the need to use oil that costs $8-$9 a quart in daily drivers and beaters. If I had a hot motor with a lot of money in it I would probably run better oil to help make it last, but thats about it. Anything more than the manufacturer recommends is overkill
