Both results are a 30-grade API SP oil, right?
I use Mobil 1EP as originally recommended by Mobil on their site in Jan 2022. I checked yesterday and Mobil has now changed their recommendation to Mobil 1EP high mileage. This for a 2021 MAZDA turbo. I'm trying to understand why the change? Ed

M1 0W-40 is not a great choice for small, high-revving turbocharged engines if they're GDI (LSPI, intake tract deposits).curious what your OM recommends?
I would think for small turbo engines one of these Euro oils with bells and whistles may not be a bad idea.
I like M1 EP and use it often but if I had a small high revving turbo, I would consider the Euro oils like M1 FS Euro 0W-40 over M1 EP definitely after some research though.
