I just made a deposit on an ATI ProCharger for my Nissan 350Z.
(A little background, the Mechanicals on the ProCharger are a bit less maxed out than on the Vortec for my car, but Vortec is cheaper and more complete as it ads a timing solution to the fuel solution that both have. Can get a deal on a new procharger since I drive a LOT of miles i figured I rather pay extra for a Timing solution using J&S Ultraguard)
This is my DD as well as my only car.
Sees a lot of highway driving at 13,500 miles, in only 5 months of ownership.
Car will see some streetracing as well, possibly some AutoX and also some dragstrip.
As summer is starting I wanted to go to a 40 weight thats stable and has good HTHS.
couple weeks ago ( ie 1500 miles ago) got a oil chnange with Belgian Castrol 5w-40, but the HTHS is a disappointing (for a 40 weight) 3.6.

Since the car will see Summer use with forced Induction, I am thinking M1 15w-50, but am open to suggestions for some real strong (HTHS and oxidation resistance) 40 weights.
