Delo might be a good fleet diesel oil but I sure wouldn't use it in my Supra. At 15W40 it's too thick since Toyota recommends a 5W30 or 10W30 viscosity.
I'd also be worried that dino oil and superchargers aren't the best combo. Everything I've read indicates you want a full synthetic for turbocharged engines due to bearing heat which can turn dino oil to tar should the turbo not be cooled down prior to shutting off the engine.
I also like Moly and Delo has none.

I'll bet that delo oil would protect as well as any oil you can buy in general, remember big diesel engines have large diameter journels and the bering speeds would be as high as any car engine . Some big truck engines cost way more than a Supra .Not to step on anyones toes .I may be getting a 1967GTO from my friend and if I do it will be getting a 632 ci world products engine, what will I put in it Delo oil why ? for the protection. Chevron ran Delo in some race cars for a while .Worked good . Although You can't go wrong with Redline oil.
