I normally just use some good quality olive oil for my turbo, but mines a TD05 so maybe different.

I tried vegetable oil in my TD05 and it made a strange whine sound so quickly drained it and went back to olive.
A tuner once told me to use grapeseed oil as it increases boost but I didn't dare try it

if using on track dynamite Duncan recommends vaseline.
This cures the whine from olive oil.
Was it extra virgin olive oil as this is jdm only
