on their website FAQ, one of the oil answers says they found Mobil 1 doesn't hold up to turbo powered engines.
I received an email for someone there a few months back and they said when dynoing tuned Saabs, a few motors blew. The problem was traced back to oil breakdown. NOw, they change the oil to 'their preferred brand'(can't remember) before testing.
