Either Mobil 1 15W 50, Valvoline racing 5 50, Millers CFS 10 60 or silkolene 10 50.

All are fully synthetic.

I would recommend Silkolene PRO S 10w-50.

Details here:

There will be less wear on cold start than with 15w.

Cheers

If the car is tuned or used on track then it's the best by far.

Top oil, reasonable price compared to Mobil1 and Castrol as well
