Hey guys have a question regarding the ideal oil for my built 13b.
Long story short i have a rebuilt 13b with a single turbo aiming for around 400whp. The tuner recommends i run a 15w-50 for good oil pressure and he was recommending motul 300v. Being that im in New Zealand, Penrite sells a similar product in their 10 Tenths range which is also a 100% pao esther blend and is about 40% cheaper so this is what i plan to run.
My main concern with this oil is that it has a flash point of 206 degrees compared to motuls 236 degrees and its antiwear package is around 1800ppm zddp.
Ideally i want an oil with low deposits and historically this has meant Mazda will only endorse full mineral oils, but with a build of this nature i feel like a full synthetic will offer better and more consistent protection.
My concern relates to whether the Penrite's relatively low flashpoint and high zddp content is likely to be an issue for deposit build up.
Also for what its worth i plan to premix and will be running mobils 2t full synthetic 2stroke.
Any insight or clarification on this matter would be greatly appreciated, thank you.
