For a turbo car, I'd recommend going with the Euro Formula M1 10w40 - the 5w30 stuff is just too thin.
im using amsoil 5-30 and my car is running better than ever. that was the original viscosity recommend by VAG but they now recommend 0-40 after the sludge issues. i'm going to get the 5-30 analyzed by blackstone labs and see what i find....if it looks good i'm sticking with amsoil 5-30.
