What do you guy's use for pre-mix? Also my turbo use to be leaking oil so i only ran 10W40 in the engine. But since everything will be rebuilt now and it wont be leaking what oil should i go to?

20-50 seems to be the oil of choice for a lot of rotor heads.

I tried 10-30 but it was too thin and caused my car to smoke.(no premix, just OMP)
