Another Oil Thread

What would you guys rather run in your usdm Fiesta ST 1.6l turbo? Castrol MAGNATEC or Castrol Edge 5w30? Currently running the magnatec, thinking of switching to Edge.

Oil is oil for me. I grab full synthetic 5w30 changed every 6k

Castrol's online oil selector recommends Edge High Mileage for the Fiesta ST

I guess "high mileage" costs more LoL. At <80k mine is definitely not high mileage.
Been using Castrol the entire time though. BP makes good oil. Had 327k on a previous engine and it was perfectly fine using their dino/mineral (not "high mileage") oil. (lost vehicle due to rust)
Don't know what their additive package is for their gasoline but it stinks and have gotten way less torque out of it, across multiple vehicles in the past. Haven't touched BP gasoline in >10 years LoL...

High Mileage probably costs a dollar or two more in a 5 qt. jug. But the extra detergency of a high mileage oil might not be bad in a DI engine. And the seal conditioners aren't a bad idea in a minimum 6 year old car.
