All we really know is how well your oil stood up after 3000 miles.

I think it's safe to say running synthetic, or in this case TN synthetic is good for at least 5000 miles. That's good to know.
I bet you can easilly get 7500 miles between oil changes with synthetics. BMW recomends 15,000 between oil changes. I ran my M3 as they proposed, and I never had any problems.

good point.
since I got my TT ia have had Mobil, Castrol and AMSOil. All 3 held up very well.
And I am at the track usually at least once per week.
I'm sticking with AMSOil now because I signed up on the preffered customer list and am getting it at wholesale price and I have heard very good reports about it

I think the Turbonetics TS-1 is going to be my oil of choice once I can readily order it. However, it is 5w30 oil, and for a TT setup where the oil has to cycle through two turbos rather than one single, I think I'd go a a little heavier especially in the summer time.
As far as for the ST, however, TS-1 is my pick.
