Message	I did some research and found it to be true. If you have BB turbos it doesn't matter but if you have thrust bearing turbos it isn't good for them because the zinc is very important. Now if you don't boost much you might still be ok but why chance it if you don't have to. Somebody please correct me if i am wrong on the protection part, but I know that have changed the zinc content in the oil.
